|
If I want to restart as much as possible without rebooting (not rebooting the kernel), what must i do then?
Is it possible to restart all services (or close to all) by doing a /etc/init.d/[something] restart? A few in a special sequence?
Right now my /etc/init.d/ contains:
| Code: | acpid crypto-loop famd hotplug net.eth1 ntp-client reboot.sh smartd webmin
atalk cupsd functions.sh inetd net.lo ntpd rmnologin sshd winbind
bootmisc depscan.sh gkrellmd keymaps netmount numlock rsyncd switch xdm
checkfs distccd gpm local net.ppp0 pcmcia runscript.sh synclient xfs
checkroot domainname halt.sh localmount nfs portmap samba sysklogd
clock esound hdparm modules nfsmount postfix serial urandom
consolefont fam hostname net.eth0 nscd quota shutdown.sh vcron |
I'd like to know in a bit more detail the boot up sequence, among other things  .

Check which runlevel you're currently in:
And then restart that:
This should run the whole shebang again from the point where the kernel has finished loading.

you could switch to runlevel 1 and then back to default:
| Code: | #init 1
#init default |
I think thats the right code. I dont' have a machine in front of me I can do that to at the moment. heh. You just doing this for uptime or what?

That is part of it, yes. I am also interested in the boot up sequence too, as I said - even more than in the uptime . Having gentoo does wornders for the curiosity , and the over all linux/GNU-knowledge due to that!

I totally didn't even read that last part of your post. I was an uptime fiend once... got to almost 70 days on my server but we have bad power and bad backup power... so much for that. heh.

Same here back in my win2k days Form the day I installed it it never had a reboot, I got it to 80 days then I had to move. Too much damn effort if you ask me. |

Heh, from my router box:
| Code: |
0844 pts/0 ~
root@jaxun > uptime
08:44:41 up 221 days, 22:02, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.03, 0.00
|
But yeah, I usually "telinit 1", do whatever I need to do, then "telinit 3". |
