Re: Here's an easy question, how shutdown debian?
You should always use one of the following (where you need to be root):
$ su -c '/sbin/halt' # To shutdown immediately
$ su -c '/sbin/reboot' # To reboot the machine immediately
$ su -c '/sbin/shutdown <other arguments>'
# To shutdown or reboot sometime in the future
You must be careful to shutdown the machine properly, because data in
memory may not have been written to disk yet (among other reasons).
