I have a miniature PC here with a large and prominent power button on the front which is easy to bump accidentally.



The system is running CentOS 7 with systemd.



I already know that I can set HandlePowerKey=ignore in /etc/systems/login.conf but this disables it entirely.



What is the procedure for addressing this on CentOS?

  • Try using a e.g. sleep 5 script before shutdown

  • Headless or DE? (I have a gnome solution that shows a dialog box...)

  • This is a CentOS minimal install so there is no desktop environment.

You might be able to tackle this via BIOS level setting.



There should be a setting in power or system management with reference to power button. It normally has two options: instant action, and delayed for a couple of seconds.

  • I would agree but there is no such option on this BIOS.
