shutdown -h now reboots my computer

[rajl]

Ok, I've got the wierdest problem. When I was running gentoo 2.4.19-r9, my power management was working fine. then one day, shutdown -h now rebooted my computer rather than shutting it down and halting it, and I don't know why. I tried upgrading my kernel to solve the problem, didn't work.

I have the following enabled in my kernel, all builtin:
-Power Management
-Advanced Power Management
-Enable PM at Boot time
-Make CPU Calls when idle
-RTC stores real time in GMT
-Allow interrupts during APM bios calls
-Use real mode APM Bios calls to power off

This is a really annoying problem I'm not sure of how to fix. Any help would be appreciated.

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that something funny has been changed in your BIOS. Have a dig around and make sure that there's nothing odd in there (esp. in the power management section).
