Lee's right. Someone on Igloo told me it was a BSP (he mistyped) version problem. I'm trying to find a stable version that will work for a master image.

Possibly a kernel bug?  Lee, anything on snowball that would cause it to
not go through with the reboot when on usb power?

Last I saw, Dave was chatting with the guys at Igloo about it and a DSP
issue was fingered. Check back with him to see if his investigations
have been furthered since.

Kind regards,
Lee

   Hi all,

   Sorry for the wide distribution, but I've got a rather curious problem.

   I'm trying to get a Snowball V11 PDK working in the validation lab,
   and the only way to get it to boot on power-on is to power it over
   USB and control the power through a USB power adaptor. While this
   works admirably, the problem is that when I try to soft-reboot I get
   the usual:

   Broadcast message from root@master
   (/dev/ttyAMA2) at 15:48 ...

   The system is going down for reboot NOW!
    * Asking all remaining processes to terminate...                  
        [ OK ]
    * All processes ended within 1 seconds....                        
        [ OK ]
    * Deconfiguring network interfaces...                              
       [ OK ]
    * Deactivating swap...                                            
        [ OK ]
   umount: /run/lock: not mounted
    * Will now restart
   [ 1279.346801] Restarting system.


   and then nothing. It just hangs and never comes back until I power
   cycle it.

   BTW: Sometimes I get the whole of the "Restarting system" message,
   sometimes just half of it.

   Has anybody any idea why this might be the case and, if so, what I
   can do about it?

   Thanks

   Dave
