 FT_REBOOT()
 Force a warm or cold boot
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Syntax

      FT_REBOOT( <nBootType> ) -> NIL

 Arguments

     <nBootType> is used to indicate the type of reboot.  A value of zero
     will cause a cold boot, while any other value will cause a warm boot.

 Returns

     NIL

 Description

     This function is valuable if you need to reboot the PC for some
     reason; e.g. an installation routine that modifies CONFIG.SYS or
     AUTOEXEC.BAT.

     The source code is written to adhere to Turbo Assembler's IDEAL mode.
     To use another assembler, you will need to rearrange the PROC and
     SEGMENT directives, and also the ENDP and ENDS directives (a very
     minor task).

 Examples

     #define COLD 0
     #define WARM 1

     // Issue a warm boot

     FT_Reboot(WARM)
