Hi,

I have Dell Studio 540 desktop and Debian Lenny installed on it:

2.6.26-2-amd64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 9 22:29:32 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The problem is that I can't reboot it. It just hangs after "Will now
restart" message.

I've already tried: reboot=b, reboot=a, reboot=h kernel options. Nothing
helps.

Additional info (I can provide any other information):

I remember another post in March from someone who had a reboot problem.
I think he solved it by reboot=bios, but obviously you've already tried that.
(And I would not have expected that to work, since you're running a 64-bit
kernel. reboot=bios is only valid for 32-bit machines.)
And reboot=kbd is the default; so I assume that you've tried that too.
reboot=smp is also only valid for 32-bit machines.

reboot=triple (t) is something you can try. reboot=efi is another possibility.
I don't see reboot=a as a valid abbreviation for reboot=acpi, but maybe it is.

You might also find some useful tips in this thread:
