2.6.19? or the vserver patch?

i also found something interesting just now. on a whim i looked at the
shutdown.sh in init.d and it has changed since older ones. the newer one
which fails every time is

opts="-d"
[[ ${INIT_HALT} != "HALT" ]] && opts="${opts}p"
[[ ${RC_DOWN_INTERFACE} == "yes" ]] && opts="${opts}i"
[[ ${RC_DOWN_HARDDISK} == "yes" ]] && opts="${opts}h"

/sbin/halt "${opts}"

# hmm, if the above failed, that's kind of odd ...
# so let's force a halt
/sbin/halt -f

but if i change it to match the older one which works every time, it becomes

/sbin/halt -dp

# hmm, if the above failed, that's kind of odd ...
# so let's force a halt
/sbin/halt -f

in changing only a few of our vservers to this older method, every one now
shuts down properly.
