I have solved my problem and this solution might work for other people.
After the install acpi=no was in lilo.conf.
Although I applied some updates since the original install there were no kernel \
updates although one of the updates may be needed to make this work.
in mcc, select boot options and there is a check box for acpi. Change it to on and it \
will ask to install the acpi package. After installing acpi reboot.
After the reboot the reference to acpi in lilo.conf is gone and the computer now \
shuts down properly.
Hopes this helps some else.

Between 2005 and 2006 on different hardware, the kernel required me
to append "lacpi pci=routeirq" to get a stable box working, no
crashes. This is only to illustrate that with a new kernel these
things can happen.

Probably? maybe if others suggested it, why not try it and check the
stabiltity if it starts X ... use the force =)
acpi=force

These are some of the kernel parameters for 2.6.17 (from
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt)
acpi=[HW,ACPI] Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
Format: { force | off | ht | strict | noirq }
force -- enable ACPI if default was off
off -- disable ACPI if default was on
noirq -- do not use ACPI for IRQ routing
ht -- run only enough ACPI to enable Hyper Threading
strict -- Be less tolerant of platforms that are not
strictly ACPI specification compliant.
See also Documentation/pm.txt, pci=noacpi
lapic[IA-32,APIC] Enable the local APIC even if BIOS
disabled it.
nolapic [IA-32,APIC] Do not enable or use the local APIC.
apic [SMP,APIC] Tells the kernel to not make use of any
IOAPICs that may be present in the system.
pci=option[,option...][PCI] various PCI subsystem options:
noacpi [IA-32] Do not use ACPI for IRQ routing
or for PCI scanning.
routeirq Do IRQ routing for all PCI devices.
This is normally done in pci_enable_device(),
so this option is a temporary workaround
for broken drivers that don't call it.
Hopefully helpfull,
