SuperMicro-ish 4-second power button delay possible…?
-
Pretty much as per title above. Current location (can't really change until I move houses, I mean) of pfSense box kinda has me worried about possibility of power button erroneously being pressed. The SuperMicro board on my FreeNAS box has this wonderful 4-second hold requirement for the power button to effect shut down, which is the behaviour I'd like to emulate (in software) in pfSense if possible.
I found this thread while searching :

Quite old, but still relevant - I suppose one could now simply create a new tunable and input S0 as the value?
In any case, this will only "stop" the power button from working altogether, short of unplugging it from motherboard (as I understand it), which I'm trying to avoid. I'd like to see a requirement to hold the power button for a few seconds in order to initiate shutdown - in other words, preserve power button functionality. Without, of course, springing for a SuperMicro board. =)
Any way to do this?
(And no, my board doesn't have any similar option in BIOS.)
Cheers!
