system first boot service reboot system












0















I am using Debian preseed to build a "base" linux OS in which I have created a 'firstboot.service', to run on first-boot, to set device specific settings - ie host name. I am distributing the base image via clonezilla to individual kiosks, not running preseed on each device.



To force the first boot ConditionFirstBoot=true I remove the file /etc/machine-id in the last step before I create my clonezille image.



How can I reboot the kiosk automatically from my firstboot script once the customisations is complete? I need to do this a lightdm does not automatically login until a reboot after my customisations - ie hostname.



I have tried to force a reboot but it does not work and I get an error.



How do I perform a reboot from a first boot script?



Thanks



Densha
