Package: kexec-tools
Version: 1.101-2
Severity: minor
Hey,
according to the man page, kexec has a --force option which will "Force an
immediate kexec without calling shutdown". This implies that without --force,
calling kexec -e will call shutdown to change to runlevel 6 and do a proper
shutdown.
My first try with kexec showed that kexec -e will do just that, trashing a few
filesystems along the way...
I'm not really sure what the --force option really does, but it's not clear
right now.
Matthijs
