@projectgus@aus.social wait does linux even HAVE ctrl-alt-delete? I've literally never had to use it

@arichtman@eigenmagic.net Ctrl-alt-delete can trigger a reboot via the init system but it doesn't do anything deeper on Linux AFAIK.

Any time I get a kernel panic I feel like I hold down the power button for just long enough to feel the hubris of the BIOS developers who didn't think anyone would need it...

@projectgus@aus.social @arichtman@eigenmagic.net you want the magic SysRq sequences:

Hold Alt+SysReq and then type R E I S U B

E & I kills everything that isn't init
S syncs your filesystems (wait a few seconds)
U remounts everything read-only
B reboots

@zanchey@aus.social @arichtman@eigenmagic.net ah, thanks. I always assumed this wouldn't work on newfangled USB keyboards but the internet says it does (unless USB is what's died).

I guess I should configure my keyboard to have a SysRq key, and then later remember how to press it...
