To be honest - no, I did not think of that in this particular case. Perhaps because I wanted to get into the interactive GRUB menu to test my changed menu.lst file and reformatted slice layout. Of course, the final test is by a full reboot, however hardware POST takes about 2-3 minutes which is a bit too much for iterative checking ;)
Maybe I get the fast-reboot idea a bit wrong? Where's the interception point for reloading kernel - is it part of GRUB or some minimalistic routine started after GRUB has forwarded the execution to the selected OS image? The question arises because it is possible to use luactivate and reboot into another kernel (and OS root) quickly.
