reboot during kickstart

I'm working with Red Hat Linux 7.2 and Advanced Server 2.1 and I
need a way to instrument a reboot during a kickstart installation. The
reason for this is so that I can remotely abort the current kickstart
installation and then start a new one (I am doing pxe installs). I
already have the remote part worked out, I just need a way to cause
a reboot on the system.
- Is there something in /proc that I can write to?
- What about killing some process - I didn't have much luck other
than in locking up the machine.
- What about an executable already available in anaconda?
I've tried without success:
reboot (not found)
halt (not found)
shutdown (not found)
init 6 (doesn't appear to listen to parameters)
killall5 (locks the system up - not a reboot)
I tried killing the 2nd linuxrc (ps ax), but nothing.
I tried killing the 1st linuxrc, this locked the system up - no reboot.
Thanks in Advance,
Richard Black
