Subject: how to restart userland?
Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2003 20:39:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031103193940.GA16820@louise.pinerecords.com> (raw)

Hi,

Would anyone know of a proven way to completely restart the userland
of a Linux system?

i.e. something like
# echo whatever-restart >/proc/wherever

Killing all processes.
Killing init.
Unmounting all filesystems.
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
INIT: v2.84 booting
...

Thanks for any pointers,
--
