>Description:
As to 6.0-Release, I can reboot the machine by pressing space bar after the
message,
The operating system has halted.
Please press any key to reboot.
but, I can't on 6.1-Release.
>How-To-Repeat:
default setting always repeat the problem.
type "shutdown -h now" and press space bar after the above message to reboot,
but nothing happens.
>Fix:
disable kbdmux at boot time.
put hint.kbdmux.0.disabled="1" into the file /boot/device.hints.
During shutdown process, kbdmux should actively poll the underlaying
phisical(?) keyboard.
