Normally it calls reboot(8). But since this is a function of the syscons(4) driver, you can disable (accidental) reboots by setting SC_DISABLE_REBOOT This option disables the ``reboot'' key (by default, it is Ctl-Alt-Del), so that the casual user may not accidentally reboot the system. in the kernel config file (great for unattended, publicly accessible machines!). -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
