i had some trouble using /dev/reboot with vesa graphics
enabled.  i have been using this code rather than the standard
/dev/reboot:  http://9fans.net/archive/2009/12/140

i had a brain wave a few weeks ago but i haven't had a
chance to test it until today.  and surprisingly, it works.

	; aux/vga -l text && >/dev/reboot echo reboot /386/9pc

my terminal can reboot from rio to rio in under 3 seconds.

cavet emptor: i've only verified this to work on 1 terminal.
ymmv.
