Did you inadvertently switch architectures maybe? Going from 32 bit to
64 bit is the most common cause of that, when it finishes it can no
longer execute the reboot binary as it's a 64 bit binary on a 32 bit
running kernel.


Out of curiosity, couldn't this be solved by including both a 32-bit and 
64-bit binary and calling both?

And you cannot eliminate three of this with a switch? Sounds like you should 
look at your design.

Ah, you definitely didn't switch architectures then or you would have
bricked it since that's a 32 bit proc. I'd guess that system has one
of the aforementioned quirks that prevents it from rebooting on its
own in general.

64 bit is the most common cause of that, when it finishes it can no longer
execute the reboot binary as it's a 64 bit binary on a 32 bit running
kernel. Though sounds like that's nano, where that wouldn't apply. Other
than that, ACPI issues tend to comprise the other scenarios where the system
won't reboot, but that's a scenario where the system wouldn't ever
successfully reboot on its own, it'd get stuck in the process of trying to
do so and hang until you power cycle it. What hardware is it?

I really shouldn't do these things when I'm on call. :/
