> Most recent kernel where this bug did *NOT* occur: 2.6.13.5
>
> Distribution: Debian
> Hardware Environment: Averatec 3156X (seemingly identical to the american model
> 3150P)
> Software Environment:?
> Problem Description:
> I noticed that with recent kernels my laptop would reboot when I do an 'init 6',
> but hang at the end of the init run. The last working vanilla kernel is
> 2.6.13.5. With some trying and a bit of guessing I found a change to
> include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_reboot.h in 2.6.14 to be the culprit. It can
> be found at:

>
> On a 2.6.21 source tree I can revert this patch, and then rebooting works.

> Steps to reproduce:
> 1) On a Averatec 3156X (or 3150p?) boot to your default runlevel.
> 2) as root, type "init 6".
> 3) instead of rebooting, the system will hang at the end with a blank screen.
