Is it possible to config a mac-mini for "hard" power off?
Im considering to buy a mac mini to connect to a homecinema-reciever for playing music with itunes.
The reciever has a current-sense plugbar attached, this means, if the reciever is turned on, all other devices get power, if reciever turned off, all other devices loose power, this works fine for tv, blue-ray and so...
But what happens if i run a mac, and plug out power? I guess do this often will destroy the operating system.
For power on, i have to push the button, but i dont want to.
So, is there a solution for :
1.) Configure "Turn on after Power Loss" like in Windows based BIOS ? If i plug in power, the Mac Mini should start..
2.) Configure a Mode, where it is not bad, to just remove power?
Thanks for you help
