NAME

fshalt, reboot − halt any local file systems and optionally reboot the system

SYNOPSIS

­fshalt [ ­-r ] [ ­new-kernel ]
­reboot

DESCRIPTION

­Fshalt syncs all local fossil(4), venti(8), and kfs(4) servers, then halts all local fossil and kfs servers.  If given -r, ­fshalt will then reboot the machine.  If ­new-kernel is given, it will be loaded as the new kernel rather than the currently-loaded kernel.  The halting and rebooting is done by copying all necessary commands into a ramfs(4) file system and changing directory there before attempting to halt file systems, so this will work even on standalone machines with their roots on local file systems.

­Reboot restarts the machine it is invoked on.

BUGS

On standalone machines, it will be impossible to do anything after invoking bare fshalt.
