Comment 81 for bug 468589

I tried the #19 solution posted by Agostino Russo in an administrative account terminal. I got a bad command reply. I then figured I had to try an editor, so tried it as "gedit", which did not let me save. I figured I needed superuser privileges, so tried it as: "sudo gedit /etc/rc6.d/S40umountfs"
 (quotes are mine, don't type them in the terminal). This led me to some nicely colored command lines. I edited the appropriate ones per Mr. Russo in #19 by backspacing to remove the "-f" in the places recommended. Fastest, cleanest shutdowns I have ever seen on a computer. I have repeatedly shut down the computer from a variety of modes (admin user, limited user, log-in screen) with no problems. Agostino, you are a genius. In another forum, you can earn beans. You deserve a bean for this one.
