[ubuntu] `sudo reboot` doesnt reboot

Hi,

I'm running Ubuntu 6.06.2 on my 1f0 server. Every time I do `sudo reboot`, everything is shutting down, I can see "Will now reboot", but it doesn't reboot.

However the computer doesn't seems completely powered off. A led is turned on. In order to complete the reboot, I need to hold the "power" button for 5 seconds, then push it again to boot the computer.

I've passed each option of the BIOS one by one, but nothing seems related to my problem. (Maybe I missed it....)

Here is the output when I try to reboot :

Code:

Apr 25 22:19:30 jogger shutdown[4499]: shutting down for system reboot
Apr 25 22:19:30 jogger init: Switching to runlevel: 6
Apr 25 22:19:32 jogger mysqld[3647]: 080425 22:19:32 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld: Normal shutdown

Apr 25 22:19:35 jogger mysqld[3647]: 080425 22:19:35 [Note] /usr/sbin/mysqld: Shutdown complete
Apr 25 22:19:35 jogger mysqld[3647]:

Apr 25 22:19:38 jogger kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating.
Apr 25 22:19:38 jogger exiting on signal 15

Any hint where I can search to find the problem ?

Thanks,
Mathieu

I know it doesn't really answer the reboot command problem, and it might even be aliased, so this might be pointless to try, but does

Code:

sudo shutdown -r now

have the same result. I have had similar problems w/ reboots/shutdowns on my laptop running hardy, but I'm away from it right now

Same problem with `sudo shutdown -r now`.

Has this computer always done this?

Try looking at power management in the BIOS.

Also try upgrading the server to latest release.

I'm having the same issue. I'm running the current release of Ubuntu Server (8.04 that I downloaded less than a week ago)...the 'sudo shutdown -r now' command begins the shutdown process but the system hangs after:

*Will now restart
[ 73.409331] Restarting system.

I don't see anything in my BIOS that might be related, although I did try flashing to the newest version to try and fix this issue...

It's a bit frustrating because I can't do much remotely if any time I need to reboot, it hangs...

Update: the halt command works just fine...

SOLVED: I turned the Dual Core option in my BIOS to Off

could be related to the "reboot=b" issue.
