      Hi,

      I have been running the latest Beta's on some new modern hardware (a Z270 board & i3-7100 CPU).

      Whenever the system goes to reboot, it shows the uptime and says rebooting now - but it never does. It requires a hard power off/on. The reboot command fails every time.

      The shutdown command from the GUI menu does always work however.

      Any ideas?

        I had something similar on different hardware back when I first set up 2.2, it was fixed by a bios update.

          Same issue for me on an i5-7200U.  I believe there is a problem in the way FreeBSD 11.0 handles the ACPI tables for the Kaby Lake chips.  This is fixed in 11.1 - once 2.4.1 is released we should be all set.  For now I am rebooting the box with 'shutdown -r now' which won't hang the machine on the uptime.  This doesn't appear to be an issue on FreeBSD 10.x / pfSense 2.3.x.

              I'm having the same issue here - thanks for the tip re: Kaby Lake; I was ready to order a new mobo, but will instead work around the issue until 2.4.1 gets released.

                It would be handy if the pfSense updater could issue the command 'shutdown -r now' instead of whatever it is using now.

                Then it would reboot correctly after installing updates with Kaby Lake.

                  I just posted a feature to include an alternative shutdown in the "buglist"

                  'shutdown -r now' does indeed work, but I mainly reboot it when I update packages, so must physically reboot it anyway.

                      I should mention that I think this is actually a Kabylake PCH issue (200 series chipsets or "Union Point") I have a Skylake CPU in a B250 board and it still has this issue. Not sure if this is an issue with Kabylake CPUs on 100 series chipsets (Sunrise Point)

                              New 2.41 dev snapshot install dated 29-Sep-2017 on an APU2C4.  Same thing.  Reboot doesn't work.
