            Bug ID: 243094
           Summary: reboot problem
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---

I discovered a problem with "reboot" today that affects everyone who uses
reboot.
I assumed that reboot would exit the system cleanly, but this is not the case.
I discovered this after writing a script for the rc-system and wondering why
the script did not run when using reboot.  However, when using "shutdown -r
now" the stop function is executed. 
Basically you assume that "reboot" does the same as "shutdown -r now". 
therefore my suggestion to replace reboot with a shell script which does
nothing else but "shutdown -r now".

With kind regards
