Replying to axeld:
I don't think "Fast Reboot" deserves its own menu item (instead, I would just activate it via the 'w' key, if the platform supports it). A "Shutdown" facility might be useful, though. What do others think of it?
If you agree to move the fast reboot to a hidden key, and are okay to change that patch, I guess I can close #5113 then? It doesn't cleanly apply anymore, and I think rebooting at that early point is only of limited use, anyway.
Okey, I agree. Close #5113, please. Have I change #5312 patch, or you are going to do that youself?

I currently don't really have much Haiku time (and I'm sorry that you had to suffer from that). I would appreciate it, if you could extend your patch this way.

Ok. New patch attached. Activate "Fast Reboot" via the 'w' key. Help added to "Shutdown" and "Reboot".

Sorry, I haven't had the time to look at it yet. I'll try to do that later today, but I can't promise anything.

Thanks for the new patch. I have now looked into it, and am working to integrate parts of it into trunk.

I've applied the warm boot stuff in hrev36311, thanks! I introduced a shortcut functionality in the menus that makes a clean solution possible. I don't think that shutdown makes sense in the boot loader, so I left that out.
Thanks!
