This is probably a long (or endless, or interminable!) shot, but are
you using NFS to connect your computer to other computers in your
local network? It can hang your computer on shut-down if you didn't
dismount the other computer(s) before it (they) shut down. Like I
said, it's probably a long shot, but hey - you never know! (:
