For those that want to install the NEW fusion HAT+ on Pi5 running Ubuntu 24.04 (to run ROS2), setting the shutdown behaviour is not as straightforward as Pi5 running PiOS (see user guide [Quick User Guide — SunFounder Fusion HAT+ documentation](https://docs.sunfounder.com/projects/fusion-hat/en/latest/quick_user_guide.html#configure-shutdown-behavior) ) . There are two issues when I tried. Firstly, `raspi-config` utility is not installed with Ubuntu. This can be installed using:

```bash
sudo apt install raspi-config

```

Second, when running `raspi-config`, changing the shutdown behaviour is not an option in the ADVANCED OPTIONS menu (see screenshot)

### Solution:

You can manually set the shutdown behaviour by editing the EEPROM configuraton using CLI.

1. Open the EEPROM using the `--edit` flag

```bash
sudo rpi-eeprom-config --edit

```

1. Locate and edit or add the following line under [all]: `POWER_OFF_ON_HALT=1`

This will set the shutdown behaviour `=1` to full power off

1. To save and exit (Press `Ctrl-X`, then `Y` and then `ENTER`)

2. Reboot
