A PC is a very different animal from a VM (or LPAR or bare
metal s/390) instance. I don't really see how a re-boot
would be possible w/o stacking something equivalent to
cp ipl xxx into the hypervisor (for VM). I'm too feeble
in knowledge to know how you'd go about doing this on a
LPAR or the bare metal.
