Is it just me or....

Step 1: boot
Step 2: login as root
Step 3: type "w<enter>" *
Step 4: type "shutdown now; logout<enter>"
Step 5: press <enter> at the 'Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for
/bin/sh:' prompt
Step 6: type "reboot<enter>"
Step 7: get a Panic: "Going nowhere without my init!"

* The panic will not happen if you skip step 3.

The panic will not happen if you type "sync; sync; sync" after step 5.

The panic will not happen if you wait (an unknown amount of) some time
after step 5.
