System name:		the-other-woman
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.6Q (12 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	shutdown -i 5 (reboot)

What's wrong:
	It tells  me -i is not a valid option.

What should have happened:
	The man page should have told me to use "-i<init_state>" or
shutdown should have accepted "-i <init_state>" (note space) (The same
problem exists with the -g option.)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	man shutdown
