RE: 4.4 on PE6400 - not rebooting ... FINALLY WORKS !

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Folks - FYI:

I finally got it to work (at least once)!

    reboot=bios,smp,warm

Since I didn't actually TRY 'reboot=triple', I, of course, am wondering if 'reboot=triple' is synonymous for 'reboot=bios,smp,warm' ...

Mmmmm - masochism!!!

A co-worker pointed me to this:

    /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.6.9/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

Specifically:

   reboot=	[BUGS=IA-32,BUGS=ARM,BUGS=IA-64] Rebooting mode
		Format: <reboot_mode>[,<reboot_mode2>[,...]]
		See arch/*/kernel/reboot.c or arch/*/kernel/process.c

BUT - I don't have either 'reboot.c' or 'process.c' (ARG!)

So ... after a TON of googling I found references to various combinations of the three, but not all three together.

It works!!!  FINALLY!!!

Well - reboot=bios didn't work ...
I'll try 'reboot=triple' when I get a chance.

Speaking of the devil... I've had a mobo where I needed reboot=bios on CentOS 4. Now with RHEL5, that parameter is no longer effective. Seems like YMMV a lot. I will try to remember to keep you updated if I find another solution :)
