My issue: Why does FreeBSD 5.3 not reboot? It basically locks up when I
perform a reboot. The same thing happens if I halt and then press any
key to reboot.
Here's sort of what I see on the local terminal (some snips):
Uptime: blah
Rebooting...
cpu_reset called on CPU#0

I need to do a cold restart. I've looked through a lot of docs, and I can't
seem to find this out. The computer I am working with seems to no longer
enjoy a warm reboot (like "shutdown -r now" or "reboot") but I'm pretty sure
it will do cold reboots fine. Is there a port, or is the shutdown c
yping reboot eventually just crashes the system after the CPU's are halted.
I will probably need to hack the kernel source to do the disk syncing and
other stuff which shutdown/reboot do.

From anything I can get from what you write here, its behavior is
normal and expected. What is the problem and what are you trying
to fix or to get it to do?

No, because "reboot" is basically the same as shutdown -r now. I've done
both to no avail.

Hmmm. Good link. Here's a better one that I just discovered reading about

Once you get your cvsup stuff straightened out, try this script, which I run

I am doing a test run on a production server. It has 2 hard drives.

The twed0 is a hardware mirror and my main drive.
ad0 is just for backups.

I will give it a try. I need to do something to correct this second issue for
certain. My ad0 is a good spare, but it's old.
