OK, I lied. It powered down normally with Red Hat 7.3, but there
is a similar lack-of-power-down with stock debian sarge init.
Still, there is an extra wrinkle with ruinit.
Transcript (by hand, I tried to avoid any errors):
...normal shutdown stuff...
- runit: power off
flushing ide devices: hda hdc
Power down.
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
<whine as disk spins down>
<caps log & scroll lock LEDs start blinking with one second period>
<power stays on, screen is still there, and reacts to ALT-Fn>
The only extra stuff here is the "Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!"
message. Does sysv.init spin in an idle loop if the power down fails?
I'll try some other things, like Knoppix and Google, to see if I can
isolate the problem powering down. It's off-topic for this list.
(Although if anybody reading this wants to send me a hint, I'll take it.)
