Does the -d option of shutdown/reboot work for anyone else? I've been trying to test the patch of bin/70536 on a recent HEAD installation, running on my laptop, and using the -d option of reboot seems to block forever when the kernel starts dumping. The last messages I see on my console are: Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop...done Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `bufdaemon' to stop...done Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop... Syncing disks, vnodes remaining...1 1 1 0 0 done All buffers synced. Physical memory: XXX MB Dumping YY MB: and that's the last thing printed. I tried escaping to KDB with CTRL+ALT+ESC but it seems that at this point KDB is no longer accessible. FWIW, the value of debug.minidump is 1. I'm going to try with 0 next, but i just thought I'd post this to see if anyone else has successfully used the -d flag to reboot/shutdown.
