Short of a serious emergency (e.g., UPS with |
| 14 |
30-sec lag and no input power) stick with |
| 15 |
'shutdown -fh now'. The main problem is that |
| 16 |
you bypass the stop phase of all the app's |
| 17 |
started up via init.d; very little short of |
| 18 |
just hitting the reset switch or yanking the |
| 19 |
power. |
