Not entirely related to this post but I've noticed that ever since I
upgraded my system to SuSE 8.2, I cannot reboot my system anymore with
the "reboot" command. When I issue a "reboot" command the system goes
into runlevel 6 and all of the processes shutdown but the system never
gets to the part where it actually reboots. Instead it just hange with
the HD activity LED on constantly. I have to press the reset button to
get my system too reboot.
I've never seen this problem with Linux before and this is on a system
that I've had for nearly 3 years and it has run nothing but Linux and
I've never had any problems with the box. I don' reboot very often and
so I guess I didn't notice this feature before. If I do a halt my
system goes down cleanly and powers down so I'm left wondering what a
reboot does differently and why it's broken all of a sudden.
