Not "will be booted", but maybe "has been running".

You may call me crazy, but my NetBSD/amd64 machine only seems to respond to
WOL packets iff it has been properly shut down using 'shutdown -p'[1] with
ACPI enabled, but not when the power has been cycled, or when I hit the
power button. I guess not all BIOSes do TRT in all cases, in which case
the previously running OS *does* have an influence, especially if specific
drivers are installed.
