REBOOT(8) COMMAND REFERENCE REBOOT(8)
NAME
reboot - UTek bootstrapping procedures
SYNOPSIS
/etc/reboot [ -n ] [ -q ]
DESCRIPTION
UTek is started by placing it in memory transferring to it.
Since the system is not reenterable, it is necessary to read
it in from disk or tape each time it is to be bootstrapped.
Rebooting a running system. When UTek is running and a
reboot is desired, shutdown(8) is normally used. If there
are no users then /etc/reboot can be used. Reboot causes
the disks to be synched, and a multi-user reboot (as
described below) is initiated. This causes a system to be
booted and an automatic disk check to be performed. If all
this succeeds without incident, the system is then brought
up multi-user.
Power fail and crash recovery. Normally, the system will
reboot itself at power-up or after crashes. An automatic
consistency check of the file systems will be performed and
unless this fails the system will resume multi-user
operation.
OPTIONS
-n Avoids the sync.
-q Reboots quickly and ungracefully, without shutting down
running processes first.
