Making Fast Reboot the Default Behavior of the reboot Command
</span>
</div>
<p>To make a fast reboot the default behavior on your system, create a <tt>fastreboot</tt> file in the <tt>/etc</tt> directory.</p>
<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent panelContent">
<pre class="code-java">
# touch /etc/fastreboot
</pre>
</div></div>
<p>The addition of the <tt>fastreboot</tt> file on the system changes the behavior of the <tt>reboot</tt> command, so that it uses the <tt>-f</tt> option to initiate a fast reboot, by default.</p>
<p>To revert to the original behavior of the <tt>reboot</tt> command, remove the file.</p>
<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent panelContent">
<pre class="code-java">
# rm /etc/fastreboot
</pre>
</div></div>
<p>Note that removing this file does not remove fast reboot capability from the system.</p>
