Hi,
On a new UEFI-boot desktop running Fedora 22, the command (on a terminal prompt)
"reboot" does not actually bring up the system. Actually, it is not clear that
the system even goes down. What happens is that the monitor light goes off but the desktop
light stays on -- and nothing happens. I don't even see the Fedora f/infinity bubble.
However, running "shutdown -r now" brings the Fedora f/infinity bubble, the
lights switch and the system boots again.
What is the issue here? Any suggestions? I have never had this happen previously, but
then this my first try at a UEFI system.
Is it possible to disable "reboot" -- i am concerned about
"reboot"ing remotely by habit and accident and the system not coming up until
being powered on.
I considered renaming the file /usr/sbin/reboot to something else, but then an update to
systemd would likely break my "fix".
Check if there are any firmware updates for the computer. UEFI is
complicated, bugs are many, firmware updates frequent.
/usr/sbin/reboot and /usr/sbin/shutdown are symlinks to systemctl. So
I'm not sure why -r flag matters. Also you can check this out:
