I wonder if they're true reboots.

On OS X it's somewhat rare for an update for require a reboot. Often they don't actually reboot the machine but just log you out, perform the update, and then log you back in.

While these updates feel like a reboot since you lose your desktop environment state, you can tell the difference if you're paying close enough attention.



Many are. I get Grub again, and can pick Linux.
