yes, but will ssh not die if i drop into the debugger and manually panic
the system? in other words, if i panic it and ssh dies, is there any way
to restart the system while not at the physical location of the server? im
most afraid of basically the system hanging on syncing disks while doing a
soft reboot, as it has done previously when this problem happened and then
someone has to manually push the button.

cheers,
petr
