5 From memory, I think gentoo does it this way:
6
7 You tell it to shut down, and you early on see:
8 INIT: Sending processes the ... signal
9
10 As splite pointed out, this rarely actually kills anything.
11
12 Gentoo's init scripts then kick in, closing down all running services.
13
14 You then see:
15 Sending all processes the TERM signal
16 Sending all processes the KILL signal
17
18 And this time it is really killing all remaining running processes.
19
20 And then the system shuts down.
