Well, it's not a reboot, but it has the same effect in that it kills off
production processes, but what I do is go to single user mode (telinit
1), and then remount rw, apt-get, and then remount ro, and then go back
into production mode (telinit 5).  

This, ofcourse, shuts down all the production processes and starts them
back up.  But it's not a reboot.  So I can still be smug when extolling
the virtues of *nix over windoze . . . .
