Try passing this option to the kernel:
apm=power-off
You do this at boot-up time using either LILO or GRUB. If using LILO,
include the statement in /etc/lilo.conf in a line that might look
similar to this:
append="hdc=scsi hdd=scsi apm=power-off"
If you boot with GRUB, add it to the line labled "kernel" in file
/boot/grub/menu.lst.
