Hello. This is just an idea, but do you think it is nice if there is a kernel dedicated for doing power off operation? Some kernels, especially SMP enabled ones, cannot power off after "power down" message. I want the system power off by setting the power-off only kernel entry as the default entry of the grub and executing /sbin/reboot command (that likely succeeds to reboot on any kernels) instead of executing /sbin/poweroff command (that fails to power off on some kernels). Yes it would be possible if I use an initrd as the root fs, but I thought it would be convenient if I don't need to use an initrd. Thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
