In order to shut down your machine, you must instruct the Linux kernel to stop all the processes (programs) it's currently running. Do not simply press the power off button on the front of your computer case, as Linux must be properly shut down/restarted. To shut down your machine, as root, run either of the following commands in a terminal:
halt
shutdown -h now |
