    You should really use the reboot command first because you don’t have to control the order and timing. REISU(B/O) requires pauses between letters for the specific action to run. It also requires those letters to be in that particular order - you can’t sync the file system if you put it into read only. If REISUB is sometimes not working but you can go elsewhere and reboot, you’re likely not doing it right and you should err on the side of caution and use the reboot command
