"The system is going down for halt now..."

I have just re-flashed my new BBB with debian, and am interfacing to it from Windows XP via putty. This setup seems to be working, but the board automatically powers down after a period of time giving the message in the subject above. Any guidance about how I can stop this would be welcomed, since the BBB seems to know how to power down at exactly the most inconvenient moment :slight_smile:

Thanks for any inputs…

Did you remove the SD card from the board? Looks like you're still
running the flasher.
