DUH!! on my part. My previous response was a little overboard. Why not just increase the delay to close to your ups battery's runtime. (from kern_shutdown.c, starts on line 380) /* * Everything done, now reset */ static void shutdown_reset(void *junk, int howto) { printf("Rebooting...\n"); DELAY(1000000); /* wait 1 sec for printf's to complete and be read */ /* cpu_boot(howto); */ /* doesn't do anything at the moment */ cpu_reset(); /* NOTREACHED */ /* assuming reset worked */ } __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
