poweroff

The poweroff Kickstart command is optional. It shuts down the system after completing the installation. Normally during a manual installation, Anaconda displays a message and waits for the user to press a key before rebooting. Use this command only once. This command has no options.

Syntax

              poweroff
Notes
  • The poweroff option is equivalent to the shutdown -P command. For more details, see the shutdown(8) man page on your system.
  • For other completion methods, see the halt, reboot, and shutdown Kickstart commands. The halt option is the default completion method if no other methods are explicitly specified in the Kickstart file.
  • The poweroff command is highly dependent on the system hardware in use. Specifically, certain hardware components such as the BIOS, APM (advanced power management), and ACPI (advanced configuration and power interface) must be able to interact with the system kernel. Consult your hardware documentation for more information about your system’s APM/ACPI abilities.
