 Hi,
 
 It sounds like your system is doing exactly what you are telling it to
 do.  "shutdown -h now" should cause your machine to halt, and is.  If
 you want it to reboot, use "shutdown -r now"?  Or am I missing
 something?
 
 Also, you mention that you are using a custom kernel.  What differences
 are there between that and GENERIC?
 
 Thanks,
 
 Gavin
