Hi, that omits the message @ boot and you are correct, all is/continues to work fine.

Thanks..

As far as the DP55KG reboots, the workaround is set append="reboot=a" -
will a BIOS fix address this (other) issue? Try rebooting Linux without
any special parameters (2.6.30+) and the DP55KG will hang at reboot
(note, shutdown does shut the machine off).


I haven't seen this reboot problem on my test system here. So, I don't
know what the problem is. Probably some BIOS issue.

Does "reboot=b" work? Quickest solution will be to add platform dmi
entry in reboot.c and workaround this.

Thanks,
Venki


Hi,

From my previous e-mail:

reboot=a * SUCCESS
reboot=b * FAIL
reboot=cold * FAIL
reboot=efi * FAIL
reboot=force * FAIL
reboot=h * FAIL
reboot=p * SUCCESS
reboot=s * FAIL
reboot=t * SUCCESS
reboot=warm * FAIL

Justin.
