[leaf-devel] Rebooting Wrap

[Jim T. <ji...@te...>]

I was scanning the archives last night and noticed that everybody was
using the watchdog to reboot the wrap boards. A lot easier way to do this
is add reboot=3Dbios to the syslinux.cfg as shown below. I use the wrap's
where I needed to do a normal shutdown and use the watchdog for what it i=
s
intended for.

default linux rw reboot=3Dbios initrd=3Dinitrd.lrp init=3D/linuxrc ......=
..

A more correct way to pass your parameters to the wd1100 rather then
echoing to the /proc can be done as follows. I had not seen this example
shown in anywhere in the archives.

# watchdog
wd1100 timeout=3D20 graceful=3D0


Hope these help
