I have a net5501 and would like to know the wiring too
- also for the purpose of shutting/down my OS (OpenBSD 4.0)

Always connecting another machine ( as console or via ssh )
for a clean shutdown is cumbersome.

  Hi

  I am looking at reading the Reset Switch on a net4801 from within FreeBSD 6.2 for the purpose of shutting down/restarting the system.  I have enabled Software Resets from the BIOS, but have yet been unable to determine how to read the reset status from software.  I believe the reset switch is connected to GPIO18.

  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks,
  Joshua Hyatt
