Hello fellow archers I have a Vaio laptop and my system started to hang and takes several minutes to reboot.
I have no real clue as to why since poweroff works fine and reboot used to work fine.
I did a system update. And more recently migrated to systemd, may not be related
edit: I found a workaround. Adding the following to my grub kernel line
reboot=pciBut it does not reboot quite the same way, meaning the power led no longer goes off and back on.
Still haven't quite figured out why I can no longer reboot normally without this workaround.

I am also having this problem. When trying to reboot, I get an endless cycle of the BIOS screen, then "MACHINE ERROR", then back. Running the same dmesg command as snoxu results in a similar error message. I am forced to shutdown by holding the power button. Upon rebooting, I get an error message that all extensions have been turned off (using Gnome Shell). Then I have to logout and login.
Shutting down and then restarting works fine.

I had to edit the original post. It actually reboots but only after several lminutes.
I found this in the wiki:

I'm wondering if it's related.
Until I find a solution I'm going to avoid doing reboots

Hey snoxu I think I may have a different issue than you. Here are some links related to reboot issues in case you want to take a look:

I found a workaround mentioned on another thread. Adding the following to my grub kernel line
reboot=pciBut it does not reboot quite the same way, meaning the power led no longer goes off and back on.
