I need to be able to remotely reboot or poweroff knoppix. I want to use the noeject and noprompt cheat codes so that the computer can restart knoppix without using a keyboard and monitor. However, when I use these codes, it gets to the last message: Preparing for reboot... , and then it just stops. It doesn't reboot or do anything else. I don't know if I should change the /etc/init.d/koppix-reboot file, or what. (I'm pretty new to linux and knoppix!)
BTW - I have successfully remastered knoppix and added startup scripts so that ssh and some other code of mine runs on startup. This way, I can just send a reboot command over ssh. I am actually booting off USB - but that shouldn't be the issue. When I try the noprompt/ noeject in any combination on the original, unchanged knoppix 3.9 CD it hangs like I described.
Thanks for your help!
