In the past I have been annoyed by (mostly Intel) mobos that reboot
instead of powering down when halt -p is entered. We just tell 'em to
halt and then hit the switch at the blue message. Forget sometimes =
just one more cycle ;-)

BUT now I have found a mobo that does powerdowns just fine. Problem is
it won't reboot if the reboot command (or any alternative) is issued.
It just hangs with the Rebooting . . . message.

Google and MARC found me a few hits but any that looked like my case
went unanswered and came from a fair way back in time.

Are there any config changes that are worth trying, any BIOS settings
that might work, any bit of code I can run to bypass the buggy
bios/chipset/whatever ?

Please don't reply off-list or CC me. I am subscribed and I will not
see mail that doesn't arrive from the list-server. Anything coming from
elsewhere is greytrapped.

Thanks,
Rod/

Do NOT CC me - I am subscribed to the list.
Replies to the sender address will fail except from the list-server.
Your IP address will also be greytrapped for 24 hours after any attempt. 
I am continually amazed by the people who run OpenBSD who don't take this 
advice. I always expected a smarter class. I guess not.
