Comment(by mikus):

 Replying to [comment:1 tomeu]:
 > Maybe we are suspending during the shutdown sequence?

 My personal interpretation of 'suspend' is that it is supposed to slow-
 blink the "power" light.  Did not see the "power" light blinking.
 [Pressing ctl-alt-F3 while shutdown was "hung" didn't "wake up" the
 system.]

 Besides, how come the ending picture was now shown on ctl-alt-F2, instead
 of on ctl-alt-F3 (where the Sugar GUI screen had been shown).  I do not
 think that 'suspend' would cause switching between "consoles".
