Good. It means the error was before the previous reset.

Now that you mention it, I always shut down the system from Linux,
because reboot doesn't work(from windows vista 32bit it works). If I
reboot the system from Linux it goes down, but then it enters a cycle
of automatic power down power up(with a beep) and it never stops until
I switch off the power supply.

Wow... I suppose you had to report & solve it first.

Thanks,

I guess you're right, but I just guessed it was a bios related
problem, where Linux does the right but wrong thing while windows does
the wrong but right thing, so I thought it would have been a bigger
problem trying to solve it, than simply use an -h instead of an -r.
Anyway, if people actually think this might be useful, I may file a
bug at bugzilla, or I can simply continue this thread if anyone has
something to make me test or any other request to help tracking down
this problem.

Thanks,
Giangiacomo
