Well, now I'm confused. I might have a reboot problem and not know about it in the sense that I hardly ever reboot (I think the only linux reboot that was ever required of me in the course of my usage of the OS was after a kernel update). Now you say rebooting requires and entails the exact same electrical event as a poweroff? I don't quite understand. You mean that reboot powers off the machine, and then turns it back on again immediately, whereas a shutdown/poweroff simply powers the machine off? I'm talking soft reboot here, "shutdown -r now". You must surely be talking hard reboot? I turn off my machine once a day, at night. There have been no problems turning it back on again, no hangs on "rebooting" (hard).
