    Is there a way to issue a shutdown command that
    doesn't require me to press a key to reboot?

    Currently when I enter the command 'shutdown -p' the
    system shuts down gracefully but I have to press a key
    to reboot the system.

    Ultimately I'd like to be able to power-off the system
    gracefully without requiring the user (me) to press a
    key afterwards.
