[Marek Vasut <marek.vasut@gmail.com>]

> When running Linux on a mx28evk and issuing a 'reboot'command the following
> behaviour is observed:
> 
> root at freescale /$ reboot
> starting pid 329, tty '': '/etc/rc.d/rcS stop'
> root at freescale /$ Stopping inetd:
> Terminated
> Unmounting filesystems
> umount: tmpfs busy - remounted read-only
> chown: /home/user/.rhosts: Read-only file system
> chown: /home/user: Read-only file system
> chown: /home/user: Read-only file system
> cat: can't open '/proc/devices': No such file or directory
> The system is going down NOW!
> Sent SIGTERM to all processes
> Sent SIGKILL to all processes
> Requesting system reboot
> [   24.240000] Restarting system.
