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.

FILES
     /vmunix                  system code

RETURN VALUE
     [NO_ERRS]      Command completed without error.

     [USAGE]        Incorrect command line syntax. Execution
                    terminated.

     [NP_ERR]       An error occurred that was not a system
                    error.  Execution terminated.

     [P_WARN]       A system error occurred. Execution continues.
                    See intro(2) for more information on system
                    errors.
