It is certainly with supporting. And we need a way to indicate what to do in the LinuxBIOS table, probably just which chip to controlls the motherboard reset. But if you appropriately configure the board, the keyboard controller will reboot the processor, and then you can implement the hard_reset function, to do the motherboard reboot. I need to specify reboot=hard, but it works. I needed the support code for SMP anyway... Eric
