I have noticed a similar problem with an Abit BP-6 dual Celeron 
machine.  Sometimes on shutdown or reboot it seems to hang forever, 
sometimes it hangs for 5 or 10 minutes and then finishes, and sometimes 
on a reboot it will (eventually) power down itself instead of 
rebooting.  I have not done any methodical tests yet to pinpoint the 
behavior.
