Doh! All these years I thought that was "faire boot". Well, actually, I thought it was fairboot. I've mentioned that I'm blind before and my screen reader says, "fair boot". I'm like, what the heck is a fair boot? Is there an unfair boot? It's FAI reboot, you dummy.

It didn't work though. It says "vv507i will now reboot" but it doesn't. There are a whole bunch of busy devices. I tried using fuser and killing some of the processes that have the devises open but there are just too many. I must hae something wrong because it shouldn't have all those processes still running, right?

If you log in from remote, try fai-reboot.
But pressing return should work.
