NAME

fastboot, fasthalt − reboot/halt the system without checking the disks

SYNOPSIS

/etc/fastboot [ boot-options ]
/etc/fasthalt [ halt-options ]

DESCRIPTION

fastboot and fasthalt are shell scripts that reboot and halt the system without checking the file systems.  This is done by creating a file /fastboot, then invoking the reboot program.  The system startup script, /etc/rc, looks for this file and, if present, skips the normal invocation of fsck(8).

SEE ALSO

halt(8), init(8), rc(8), reboot(8)
