Sorry, my subject line should have been more specific.....
Yes, I should have mentioned that I have tested reboot command with
VMWare and Virtualbox virtual machines and it works fine.
The problem is with my Compaq Deskpro DPENS-P350/6.4/N4.
I have tried 'powerdown=YES' in rc.shutdown, but it made no difference.
I did notice with 'dmesg', that there was an error on startup regarding
"........can't enable ACPI", so I tried booting a kernel file with ACPI
disabled. Still no successful reboot.
Not sure what else to try, or even how to go about troubleshooting this
problem.

I just hit *reboot* command.
reboot works fine on both machines.

Hello all.
First time posting here, so I apologize in advance if my question doesn't
belong on this list.
I've been using some Compaq Deskpro DPENS Pentium II machines as OpenBSD
firewalls since late 2.x to early 3.x. Recently I made the jump to 4.8 and
all
seems to work fine except I noticed the reboot command does not appear to
work. The machine gets halted, screen blanks out, but that's as far as it
goes. I re-installed 3.3 and confirmed the reboot works fine under 3.3.
Any tips/hints to help troubleshoot or resolve this problem would be
greatly
appreciated.
Do you have powerdown=YES in /etc/rc.shutdown?
Thanks in advance!
MC.
