    No. Reboot would fail because it wouldn't be able to stop the
services. It seems you have to sit in front of the computer to be able
to switch from sysv to openrc (and vice-versa). Or to connect to it via
some backdoor of your own, not managed by init scripts. Or use some
behated management engine (IPMI).
