I'm using busybox 1.17.2 in an initramfs. In my init script (/init) if
a certain test fails, it calls reboot. But when it does, nothing
happens. The init script ends with a prompt, and if I manually call
reboot, it works. Here's the relevant code:
read -p "Are you ABSOLUTELY sure you want to do this? Type 'yes to
preceed: " partyes
if [ "$partyes" != "yes" ]; then
INFO "Partitioning cancelled."
read -s -n1 -p "Press any key to reboot..."
/sbin/reboot
read -s -n1 -p "Press any key to reboot..."
fi
(The read line is all one line; Evolution wrapped it.) I call a prompt
just before the reboot; here I added one after to try to debug the
problem. When run, I just get a "Press any key" prompt, and it waits;
and then when I press a key, I get the second "Press any key". Calling
reboot, with or without the path, does nothing.
Any idea why reboot doesn't seem to want to work within my script?
Thanks.
Peter
