Code:

#!/bin/sh
if [ `id -u` != 0 ] ; then
#if not already root, call itself as root
        exec sudo gainroot <<EOF
exec $0 $*
EOF
        exit $?
fi
#real script follows
reboot

Thanks to fanoush.

EDIT: It may just be easier to use this; which can be run as user:

Code:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest="com.nokia.mce" --print-reply "/com/nokia/mce/request" com.nokia.mce.request.req_reboot
