Can you explain that a little bit more in detail for me? How is it
possible to
use a simple reboot within vserver?
reboot alone won't work without an init, and by default guests don't
have one (see below). reboot -f just calls into the kernel and tells it
to reboot. This is caught by the patch and the kernel runs vshelper,
which does the rebooting/halting.
As expected if you're not running an init (i.e. using the plain
initstyle).
I think vserver is running init on startup.
Only if you're using the plain initstyle, the default (sysv) just runs
the initscripts without going through init.
