For example, I sometimes have to change something in BIOS and then must reboot, which means I have to go almost to the login stage before I can warm-reboot. I now use Fedora Core 4, with kernel 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4. I don't have the time to do much more than suggest, e.g., learn C and assembler -- I wish I did. And maybe earlier ctrl-alt-del would raise too many conflicts or can't be done. I don't know.
