Unless they changed the GENERIC kernel in 4.1 (that is what you're using,
isn't it?), you'll need to add ext2 support to it.

As a matter of fact it's easier than looking on the cooker list. You use a
very friendly and familiar version of IM that is contained in Netscape
6. Download and install it on your Mandrake box. It's one of the sidebars.

When you're telnet-ed in, type `su', root's password, then type
`shutdown -r now'.
You should also be able to do this via webmin. Go to your box in a
browser, but with port 1:
http://my-remote-box.com:1
You should get a login dialog, if webmin is already running; enter
same as you would on console...
Porbably should su to root first, type shutdown -r now.
Better than telnet, ssh will be secure.
