OS Re-install via SSH
Would be nice to be able to initiate an OS re-install via SSH e.g. place flag file on OS partition, reboot and OS re-install takes place.

I think you only need to click on the backup button if the factory default is triggered via the boot menu.
devs would use the /.os_install trick every day to reset machines running experimental code.
There is a way to format the OS partition and re-install the OS, I think, but the steps for OS6 must be more involved than for older OSes.
