Folks - FYI:
I finally got it to work (at least once)!
reboot=bios,smp,warm
Since I didn't actually TRY 'reboot=triple', I, of course, am
wondering if 'reboot=triple' is synonymous for
'reboot=bios,smp,warm' ...
Mmmmm - masochism!!!
A co-worker pointed me to this:
/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.6.9/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
Specifically:
reboot= [BUGS=IA-32,BUGS=ARM,BUGS=IA-64] Rebooting mode
Format: <reboot_mode>[,<reboot_mode2>[,...]]
See arch/*/kernel/reboot.c or arch/*/kernel/process.c
BUT - I don't have either 'reboot.c' or 'process.c' (ARG!)
So ... after a TON of googling I found references to various
combinations of the three, but not all three together.
It works!!! FINALLY!!!
