+ <title>Shutting Down the System</title>
+
+<para>
+
+To shut down a running Linux system, you must not reboot with the
+reset switch on the front or back of your computer, or just turn off
+the computer. Linux must be shut down in a controlled manner,
+otherwise files may be lost and disk damage incurred. You can press
+the key combination <keycombo> <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>
+<keycap>Alt</keycap> <keycap>Del</keycap> </keycombo>
+<phrase arch="powerpc;m68k"> or <keycombo> <keycap>Control</keycap>
+<keycap>Shift</keycap> <keycap>Power</keycap> </keycombo> on Macintosh
+systems</phrase>. You may also log in as
+root and type <userinput>shutdown -h now</userinput>,
+<userinput>reboot</userinput>, or <userinput>halt</userinput> if
+either of the key combinations do not work or you prefer to type
+commands.
