Martin,

If the ALIX is like the (now obsolete) PC Engines WRAP, isn't a watchdog
driver needed for software reboot? Otherwise, I recall the only way to
restart one was to power cycle the box (not so handy for remote admin). My
Wrap box has a watchdog so I can't confirm this but my recollection is that
without the watchdog driver "reboot" == "halt".
