Comment 10 for bug 1376716

I've just got a MAAS 1.7 deployment going on an OB, and I'm getting stuck on boot prompts a lot as I get the nodes set up with their power parameters. There are apparently quite a few corner cases which will cause the node to try and boot up when it's supposed to shut down, and until we nail this it'll continue to affect NUC users.

As a workaround:

  - Using xvnc4server or remmina, at the boot prompt you can type "chain"
  - Disconnect
  - Wait a few seconds and then amttool powerdown

It works.
