When I use the shutdown command the compter freezes after it counts down to
zero rather than restarting.
When I was using QNX 4.23 I had no problems with the shutdown command. The
problem started when I upgraded to version 4.25C.
Is there a patch for this?
Check the -b option of Proc32, that should do it.

He said it used to work with QNX 4.23. The method
change around 4.24 I think and the -b option was added
to support various hardware. So to get the behavior
he had with 4.23 he must try the various -b options.

Actually I think it has more to do with the fact that some of the newer
computers don’t like to do the autoreboot thing. I run into the same
problem occasionally on QNX 4 and on Windoze 98. He wasn’t asking how to
keep it shutdown, he was asking why it didnt auto reboot when not using
the -b option. I am pretty sure it is hardware dependent.Jim

Ok then I must have an old version. In my version -b only means “shutdown
don’t reboot”. Are there other -b options now?Jim
