boot2docker-cli stop does nothing

Output from boot2docker-cli -v stop?

Looks like VBoxManage.exe didn't report any errors. What's the problem then?

[SvenDowideit]

just to remind myself - i wonder if its the acpi changes we made

[riobard]

I cannot help on this. Don't have a Windows machine to test.

[SvenDowideit]

I've just had this happen on OSX too. I wonder if we should have a timeout, after which we call VBoxManage poweroff

[SvenDowideit]

one example when this happens, is if the bootup dies - missing iso, something very broken etc. so we should probably have a countdown to tell the user we have a backup plan
