You need the full path....(as above)

as an aside, shotdown and reboot are linked to a shared library, i have
seen cases where lib corruption made them unrunnable, as a LAST resort
you can do kill 1
this kills init which effectively kills everything else and reboots, but
it doesn't sync the disks, so you may loose some data...(thus it's an act
of desperation ;)
