That does not sound good. Can you try the following: kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-686-pae --reuse-cmdline --initrd=/boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-4-686-pae If your version of kexec does not support "--reuse-cmdline", try instead: kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-686-pae --append=`cat /proc/cmdline` --initrd=/boot/initrd.img-3.16.0-4-686-pae and then try a reboot. Thanks, Khalid
