When I shutdown the PC (with shutdown -h now) the PC will hang when the cd is ejected and I have to disconnect the power to be able to restart the PC. I have no idea what went wrong.
It cannot find the "halt" binary because you already removed the CD. http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue384
Workarounds: Use noeject bootoption (so that the CD is not ejected before reboot), or ensure that you have called the reboot or halt binary (depending on what you want to do) immediately before shutdown, for example by using "halt" or "poweroff" instead of "shutdown -h now". or by calling it "halt --help", so that it is still in disk cache.
The same applies for "reboot" vs. "shutdown -r now".
Ah, great for pointing me into the right direction, Michael. :)
