	From Documentation/proc.txt:

3.4  /proc/sys/kernel - general kernel parameters
[...]
panic
   The value in this file represents the number of seconds the kernel
   waits before rebooting on a panic. When you use the software
   watchdog, the recommended setting is 60. If set to 0, the auto
   reboot after a kernel panic is disabled, this is the default
   setting.

	From Documentation/Changes:

   <CTRL><ALT><DEL> now performs a cold reboot instead of a warm reboot
for increased hardware compatibility.  If you want a warm reboot and
know it works on your hardware, add a "reboot=warm" command line option
in LILO.  A small number of machines need "reboot=bios" to reboot via
the BIOS.

	It seems that if you don't configure lilo in such special manner, Linux
always performs cold reboots (=hard reset, AFAIK).

	Hoping this helps you,

		David.
