If you use the reboot(2) system call you can already specify a large number of options, for options that are currently not supported by coreutils' reboot or busybox's reboot, you could probably provide a shell script wrapper which calls into either your own reboot implementation or the regular one, would that work? -- Florian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
