- Yeah...you select "Restart" from the Finder's Special menu....
-
- A/UX completely takes over the mac, to the point where it's really
- no longer a mac. In fact, if you log into the Macintosh environment
- via the console, you can then kill the sh process that owns the c
- startmac process, and you'll wind up back at the login screen.
-
- Any sort of "unbooting" would take longer than a restart, if it would
- even be possible, and I'd still be awfully nervous about things being
- left over in RAM.
