That can force the Kindle system to do some really crazy things.
At least wait for the restart to complete.

Note: A "normal" restart can take several days, since the start-up sequence includes file system checks and auto-repairs as required.
Repairing the file system on an eMMC device can be VERY slow.
That's good to know. Sounds like it would be stupid to try to interrupt the startup process. I was restarting it plugged into a wall charger (not connected to a computer).
