I don't have a /etc/default/grub on this machine. It seems to be available with grub-pc, but here I have grub-legacy. Perhaps I should use defoptions=quiet reboot=pci After a search on Google, I've found http://linux.koolsolutions.com/2009/08/04/howto-fix-linux-hangfreeze-during-reboots-and-restarts/ where a comment says: "Had issues with Dell latitude E6420 had to add reboot=pci to fix the issue" -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
