[Bug 364889] Re: reboot in jaunty doesn't restart from bios

[naphelge]

I always install kexec as part of a new install b/c I appreciate the
fast reboot when things hang (usually with playing mp3's continuously).

I do dual boot the current ubuntu release with the previous ubuntu release, as well as a winbloze partition for those moments I just have to... so I do shutdown and power-up again to get to another partition.
 
I do agree with smurf that there should be an option, if kexec package is installed, to be able to reboot to the BIOS/GRUB instead of just no option but to reboot the kernel. Even a 'restart -bios now' type option would be great.

ard could it be?
