.TH FSHALT 8
.SH NAME
fshalt, reboot \- halt any local file systems and optionally reboot the system
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B fshalt
[
.B -r
] [
.I new-kernel
]
.br
.B reboot
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Fshalt
syncs all local
.IR fossil (4),
.IR venti (8),
and
.IR kfs (4)
servers,
then halts all local
.IR fossil
and
.IR kfs
servers.
If given
.BR -r ,
.I fshalt
will then reboot the machine.
If
.I new-kernel
is given, it will be loaded as the new kernel rather than
the currently-loaded kernel.
The halting and rebooting is done by copying all necessary
commands into a
.IR ramfs (4)
file system and changing directory there before attempting to halt
file systems,
so this will work even on standalone machines with their roots on
local file systems.
.PP
.I Reboot
restarts the machine it is invoked on.
.SH SOURCE
.B /rc/bin/fshalt
.br
.B /rc/bin/reboot
.SH SEE ALSO
.IR cons (3),
.IR reboot (8)
.SH BUGS
On standalone machines, it will be impossible to do anything
after invoking bare
.LR fshalt .
