I guess what's important is that you do manual backups
and manual unmounts before shutdown. Let's look on
the bright side, you can just switch off the power. How
many OSs can do that?

Do you have the newest Firmware installed on your Thinkpad?
Unfortunately I have an older, but I can't update to a newer, due to a bad empty battery, which is not working anymore. Therefore it is not possible to update the firmware.

it is possible. will try it..

Yes, I know, but I think that this is not for the 390E.

The files have other names and if you flash your firmware you should know what you do :)

Which files to be renamed, which files to be replaced?

Will you try this? :)

I have the 390 and it worked.. had renamed the one file to bios.rom. platform.bin did already exist. worked.
but still freezes the system.
idea that did work well: change xsetup: fbdev (or sth like that - the lower one of both option ;)
shutting down without any problems
