Need a ctrl-alt-delete within a Windows Remote Desktop Connection? Hit ctrl-alt-end. I wish I’d known that sooner.
Need to reboot a Linux machine that’s lost it’s hard drives, giving you the unenviable error message:
“I/O Error: /sbin/reboot”?
type the following two commands into the terminal:
echo “1” > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
echo “b” > /proc/sysrq-trigger
And I’ll be damned, it reboots.
Also good for giggles on fileservers and such; but really only during peak times.
