reboo(RB_HALT_SYSTEM) / exiting init?

[Nico Schottelius]

Hello,

if I call reboot(RB_HALT_SYSTEM) and do _exit(0) after that
(from init), I get a kernel panic on one system (x86, 2.6.10)
and no kernel panic on another system (uml, 2.6.11.11).

a) What is the correct behaviour?
b) May I not _exit() as init after I called reboot() with
   RB_HALT_SYSTEM, RB_POWER_OFF or RB_AUTOBOOT?

Greetings,

Nico
