restore on reboot option section added
Different USB-Disks/Sticks and have been tested and it was observed that external USB-Drives with external Power run error free, but some USB-Sticks and USB-Disks powered by the USB port bus, can have issues (possibly low voltage/Hal-Daemon problems).

===Restore on initial reboot after fresh OS install - How to Reset option===
A full Restore from a backup file (eg located on a USB drive) is only recommended to be done immediately after installing a fresh sme server operating system. If this option is not selected on the first reboot, then the option is no longer available on subsequent reboots.
To make this option available, log in as root do the following:
config delete PasswordSet
config setprop bootstrap-console Run Yes
signal-event reboot
If using this technique, please ensure you have a "clean" system, with no users, groups or ibays etc configured.
If there are any users/groups/files added to the system since installation, then the results of the restore will be undefined and probably undesirable.
For example, if ibays were previously configured, then these will still be in the file system but they will not be displayed in server manager.
