I would like to make my FreeBSD stable system so that
control-alt-delete halts the computer rather than rebooting
it.

I had a quick look over the source code of the kernel, and
I don't see this as a built in option.  I really have no idea
what I am doing, but suppose I was to change
/sys/dev/syscons/syscons.c so that the lines (about line 3103)

#ifndef SC_DISABLE_REBOOT
		shutdown_nice();
#endif

were instead

#ifndef SC_DISABLE_REBOOT
		boot(RB_HALT);
#endif

Would that work, or am I missing something?

Stephen
