My main problem here is that my KVM IP is running in the same machine and that remote power on/off cycle is "requested" and done in a short but unpredictable time. So, the usual problem is that I am disconnected from the KVM and, even if I reconnect fast, the BIOS screen is already gone. Painful. Anyway, somebody else already replied the real question. The answer is "google fastboot openindiana". I think this is very useful, but I would love to have the explicit choice (without messing with SMF propertied) between fastboot "init 6" or "full hardware boot" "init 6". "init 6" behaviour seems to be hardcoded, I can't influence it via "/etc/inittab". Maybe I could write a (non trivial?) shell script to simulate "init 6" with a "reboot -p" at the end... Suggestions? PS: Or download "init" sourcecode and write the functionality myself, althought it seems pretty overkill... - -- Jesus Cea Avion _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ [email protected] - http://www.jcea.es/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ jabber / xmpp:[email protected] _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ . _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQCVAwUBTjsuwplgi5GaxT1NAQI/8QP9Gxca6d9wQzWF/YUWR/TfQoVdnZbTeZI9 ewC98Il0hy5J+m65dfNiVPgdKENtz7Fig/Zn8uuKgSlKsnSZ8ETKn9Ihbd3uP+eF HrpHJtngf+lWiV4UV1Phfycc+24iAAo+U9BX3iuW5bfjO2paAz133qNyXiYMJPzb N7YYtOh7XSY= =WD8R -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
