We have a never ending stream of 'reboot quirks' for new boxes that will not reboot properly under Linux (they will hang on reboot). The reason is widespread 'Windows compatible' assumption of modern x86 hardware, which expects the following reboot sequence: - hitting the ACPI reboot vector (if available) - trying the keyboard controller - hitting the ACPI reboot vector again - then giving the keyboard controller one last go This sequence expectation gets more and more embedded in modern hardware, which often lacks a keyboard controller and may even lock up if the legacy io ports are hit - and which hardware is often not tested with Linux during development. The end result is that reboot works under Windows-alike OSs but not under Linux. Rework our reboot process to meet this hardware externality a little better and match this assumption of newer x86 hardware. In addition to the ACPI,kbd,ACPI,kbd sequence we'll still fall through to attempting a legacy triple fault if nothing else works - and keep trying that and the kbd reset.
