OpenSuSE 12.2 on external USB 3.0 hdd-> shutdown powers off too early Jan 17th 2013, 14:55 Hello, I have installed OpenSuSE 12.2 on an external USB 3.0 hdd (Ext4 partition). This is not my "main system", but it looks quite stable and usable except that normal "shutdown -P now" seems to power off the USB hdd too early it seems, leaving a corrupted file system behind (fsck complains at boot time). There are no problems if I use "shutdown -H" and power off manually, after the system is halted. Is there a way to use "shutdown -P now" to shut down more gracefully? Perhaps to wait some time before powering off? Thank you
