Rebooting & Halting
===================

Traditionally, rebooting and halting a UNIX system is done by switching
to the corresponding runlevel (0 or 6).  Over time this has changed and
Finit comes with its own tooling providing: `shutdown`, `reboot`,
`poweroff`, and `suspend`.  These commands are also available from the
[`initctl`](initctl.md) tool.

For compatibility reasons Finit listens to the same set of signals as
BusyBox init.  This is not 100% compatible with SysV init, but clearly
the more common combination for Finit.  For more details, see the
[Signal](signals.md) section.
