What exactly is meant by "reboot?"

Does this mean "cycle power" or cleanly reboot?

Based on the problems you are encountering, I am guessing that
you drop power.

Is the storage external for this test?  Is it qualified hardware
or are you planning on supporting anything that the user may choose
to plug into their device?

It's possible that an external USB device is behaving poorly,
and that may be the root of your problems.
