Friends:
Thank you for your time and attention.
I am running the latest arch 64 bit inside the latest Virtualbox.
The host os is Windows 7 Enterprise edtion (64 bit).
The VM is (as I have said) arch linux.
When I type
sudo shutdown
the messages scroll down and then it says
system halted
but the Virtual box application does not go away.
I have to the Virtualbox menu and click close->power down.
Is there a way to make the Virtualbox window go away upon a
sudo shutdown
Regards,

I have the same setup... I use 'sudo poweroff' though and it works as expected.

for /sbin/shutdown, the default should be poweroff
but i dont recommend the use of /sbin/shutdown at all as its just a symlink to systemctl anyway, just use systemctl directly to proper shutdown the system with
$ systemctl poweroff

Thank you. The
sudo poweroff
works perfectly.
