I'm trying to solve this same problem on a machine I have with an Adaptec 7899 SCSI card and a Mylex 352 raid card - and have found mine to be hanging while shutting down the SCSI subsystem. How long have you left it to reboot before giving up waiting? Can you apply the attached patch and see what messages are given on shutdown? Also, it is possible that this patch will change things for you - there are two things that the SCSI shutdown routine can hang on that will now time out after a few minutes with the patch. Patch is against top-of-tree -CURRENT. It's worth applying even if you don'y use SCSI because it adds a few printf's to other places too. Gavin
