| 21 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 22 | .I Fastboot | |
| 23 | and | |
| 24 | .I fasthalt | |
| 25 | are shell scripts which reboot and halt the system without | |
| 26 | checking the file systems. This is done by creating a | |
| 27 | file | |
| 28 | .IR /fastboot , | |
| 29 | then invoking the | |
| 30 | .I reboot | |
| 31 | program. The system startup script, | |
| 32 | .IR /etc/rc , | |
| 33 | looks for this file and, if present, skips the normal | |
| 34 | invocation of | |
| 35 | .IR fsck (8). | |
