Description

When DDL is ran from CD, you have to remove the CD from the CD trail then press Enter to make the computer really shutdown. Why not pressing any key since children may not know what is the Enter key?

The bash shell command read has an option ā€œ-nā€ to tell the number of characters to be read. Unfortunately dash hasn't it and we need to make a call to bash in the shutdown script to implement this.

Strangely DDL CD in VirtualBox now shuts down without any action after 10-20 seconds. Tests for real wanted!

Does the same for real. We cannot implement this feature, or we need to switch back to bash which is anyway a vital system component.
