--- Comment #1 from Anton Shepelev <an...@rambler.ru> --- (In reply to Anton Shepelev from comment #0) An important consideration in favor of my proposal is statistical: an overwhelming majority of situations when the user wishes to reboot his machine, call for a normal, graceful reboot, as effected by `shutdown -r [now]', rather than the fast reboot with an incomplete deinitialisation that `reboot' currently performs. It is therefore a matter of economy and elegance to make the more frequent command shorter and easier, and to handle the less frequent one as a special case with explicit activation. Since `reboot' and `halt' are a related pair, probably sharing a lot of the same code, my proposal affects them both in the same way. The existing `fastboot' and `fasthalt' aliases should them be redefined to `reboot -f' and `half -f' respectively. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
