Name
       reboot - automatic reboot procedures

Syntax
       /etc/reboot [ -n ] [ -q ]

Description
       The  ULTRIX  system  is	booted by loading a kernel image, usually into
       memory at location zero and transferring to zero.  Because  the	system
       is  not	reenterable,  the  kernel image must be read in from disk each
       time the system is bootstrapped.

       When the reboot of a running system is desired, is normally  used.   If
       there  are  no  users, can be used.  The command causes the disks to be
       synced, and then a multiuser reboot is initiated.  The system is booted
       and  an	automatic disk check is performed.  If the procedure succeeds,
       the system is then brought up for the users.

       The system will reboot itself after a power failure or after  a	crash,
       provided	 auto-restart  is enabled on your system.  A consistency check
       of the file systems will be performed and, unless the check fails,  the
       system will resume multiuser operations.

Options
       -n   Prevents the disks from being synced.

       -q   Reboots  quickly  and  ungracefully, without shutting down running
	    processes first.

Files
       System code
