In either direction, if I do a warm reboot, the boot process just stops at some
point, and I have to power off to get control of the machine back.
I'm not sure that this is still the case, I'll check when I'm done with my taxes!
In windows, the slow animation of that horizontal bar in the boot screen
freezes. It's more informative in Linux, if I recall correctly it freezes the
first time one of the startup programs tries to access the ethernet.
