[Qemu-devel] -no-reboot

[Brad Campbell <brad@wasp.net.au>]

G'day all,

I'm developing a series of automated tests for win2k and winxp installs with varying features 
enabled/disabled. One thing I've found *really* handy is the ability to stop qemu rebooting and just 
have it exit every time the vm tries to reboot. (Enables me to use different command line options 
for different parts of the install).

I've knocked up a rough and ready patch for this to vl.c, I just wonder if I cleaned it up and made 
it conform more to the actual qemu coding style whether anyone else would find this feature useful. 
(No help text for this yet)

Anyway, included here for comment
