[COPY] --- SDE-COPYRIGHT-NOTE-END --- [I] Userspace tools to support fast kexec reboots [T] kexec is a system call that enables you to load and boot into another [T] kernel from the currently running kernel. [T] kexec performs the function of the boot loader from within the kernel. [T] The primary difference between a standard system boot and a kexec boot [T] is that the hardware initialization normally performed by the BIOS or [T] firmware is not performed during a kexec boot. [T] This has the effect of reducing the time required for a reboot.
