Hi All (Again). 
  I've just got the bindist installed on my machine.  (but not the etcdist).
I can't get the shutdown command to work anymore.  When I do shutdown now, it
puts me in single user mode, ok. this is going to sound really dumb,
but...what do I do now.  If I shut my machine off now, when I reboot, it finds
all sorts of disk problems on reboot.  I don't understand.  I know that I'm
really ignorant in these things, but i guess that's why I'm dong this, (to
learn it dammit!).
		Thanx Again..Alex...
