NAME

       fastboot - Reboots the system without checking file systems

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/fastboot [-lnq]

DESCRIPTION

       The  fastboot command reboots the system without checking file systems.	The program creates the fastboot file then invokes the reboot pro-
       gram.  The system start-up script contains instructions to look for the fastboot file.  If present, the script removes the file	and  skips
       the invocation of the fsck command.

       You must have root privileges to use this command.

FLAGS

       reboot without first shutting down running processes; does not log the reboot.
