Why do you think a ctrl-alt-del reboots a Linux box immediatly? <br />
I have no idea how far you got with shutdown -rn. You want to use<br />
shutdown -rf &nbsp;<br />
<br />
and you want to run this command as root.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
What I want is<br />
<br />
echo 1 &gt;&nbsp;/proc/sys/kernel/ctrl-alt-<wbr />del<br />
send ctrl-alt-del to kernel, so it reboots immediatelly. But how?<br />
<br />
Alternativelly, how to reboot machine immediatelly (no sync and stuff). shutdown -rn now fails here(becouse of failed and still mounted disk).<br />
Assume sysrq is not working here...
