Hi,

some time ago I posted about my wish adding a power LED (which I already have done - connected to gnd + 3.3V adding an 1.4K resistor) and an shutdown-switch.
Latter one I haven't done, because I didn't know which GPIO is free for this.

I already mounted the switch, connected to 3.3V using an 10K resistor. So I only need to solder it to the approprirate pin. Which one is free?

btw: sorry if my question still exists here anywhere... I couldn't find it. Usability of this forum isn't quite as good as an good old phpBB or someshing like that. How can I find my own posts? :D

Something similar was already done by a user:

Only the Serial GPIO's of the Raspberry are used. Have a look at the schematics.
