Hi,
is there any way to shut down QNX 6.2.1 (NC) from the command line
without the computer rebooting? I try “shutdown” but this always
reboots. I just want something that will either poweroff the computer,
or just halt the computer at a shut down state, like the gui “shutdown”
option does…

Thanks,
AB.

Try
#use shutdown
to list options for shutdown.
