i converted an older guest that was brought up to date with emerege world to 
baselayout2 (our template model) and have a problem in shutdown. i get these 
messages. things are fine until near the end.

 * Stopping local ...   [ ok ]
 * Stopping vixie-cron ...   [ ok ]
 * Saving random seed ...   [ ok ]
 * Stopping chrooted named ...  [ ok ]
 * Stopping syslog-ng ...   [ ok ]

  (it's better to use shutdown instead of halt from the command line)

i think the upgrade emerged not only baselayout-2 and openrc but also init-0.  
when i first tried to start it i found itwas missing a file

/lib/rc/sh/init-vserver.sh

so i copied that from the successful 2008.0 stage3->baselayout2 conversion 
that i did previously. i also think that a uDv world was done after a 
successful conversion of the older template because i do not remember any 
problems starting or stopping it before that..

any clues what may have happened? this is on an x86_64 (amd64) guest. the 
above init-vserver.sh file was taken from an i686 guest.
