My old AST system, (circa 1996), had the problem described above. My
work around was to shut it off (at the power switch) just as it was
ready to perform its last reboot. I'd wait 10 seconds, turn it on, and
away it went. If I _didn't_ shut it down, it would _always_ hang on that
last reboot, and I'd have to start over. YMMV
