I was not able to test this until now, due to the "crash on leaving X" bug which has been fixed in 2.5.69. The symptoms are a blank screen for the 35 seconds that it takes this box to do a kexec boot following do-kexec.sh /boot/vmlinuz-2.5.69-mm1 Then, if I had "id:3:initdefault:" in /etc/inittab, I just get a blank screen at the console, but I can ssh into the box since it does come up fine otherwise. If I had runlevel 5 instead in the above, then X starts OK (after a blank screen startup) and all is well.
