I've just committed changes to the kernel shutdown code to recognize the
`-p' flag to both halt(8) and shutdown(8).  The most obvious user-visible
change is that the `shutdown -h' and `halt' commands no longer power down
the system, but halt it and leave it in a state so that the machine can be
rebooted simply by pressing a key on the console.

To get the old behavior, please use either `halt -p' or `shutdown -p'.
