In the Angstrom production release shipped to me with the Minnow Board, when I am running on the serial console and type "poweroff" the shell seems to go away.
A hang also happens when using 'reboot' on 1.6 M2 RC1.
Same thing on 1.6_M3.rc2: poky 54562006c1327c5b99daa4cc05a3ba7e38412da1 / meta-minnow: 32e4d6f17917027c3babe1ab738480de9691024d / meta-intel: a2e40547fd6e2e7874e1587956c4490904ce552a ) AB download link: http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/pub/nightly/20140218-3/machines/minnow/core-image-sato-sdk-minnow-20140218215033.hddimg Running poweroff/shutdown -h now on console the system hangs indefinetly at: Sending all processes the TERM signal
No longer driving fixes for Minnowboard.
