Mostly one for the archives this, but it's taken me a few days to find
the solution, so I thought I'd share it.

I've been playing with a Rocky 558EV SBC with a K6-3D cpu for the last
week or so. Under Linux (and all the *BSDs I tried), it would reliably
lock up on reboot after syncing the disks.

The solution is to add

  append="reboot=bios"

to /etc/lilo.conf.

James.
