Does anyone know what can be done to appease the hardware into _not_ shutting down even though pwrbtn is held pressed from boot?
See this: http://www.linuxbios.org/pipermail/linuxbios/2007-October/025978.html and its thread.
Thanks for even digging it up for me!
LB is programming the power button to shut down after 4 seconds. If you don't want it to shut down *don't do that* :)
Check. :)
I think I will add a new option for this.
Be careful with that - the failsafe is generally considered be a pretty valuable addition. I can't think of any pratical reasons why you would want to not have the failsafe.
I stand corrected - there are indeed some good reasons why you want the power button wired to ground. Carry on.

Yes, there are some no power button (instant on) implementations that are interesting for Geode systems. Peter's patch will be a good addition. Marc
