Resetting the Terminal

There are two types of system resets: a soft and a hard reset.

Soft Reset (Warm Boot)

A soft reset re-boots the device without losing RAM data. You would perform a soft reset when

• the terminal fails to respond.
• after installing some software applications.
• after making changes to certain system settings, such as network cards.

Hard Reset (Cold Boot)

A hard reset resets the operating system, restores the terminal back to factory defaults, and resets the
terminal after a bootloader, keyboard, and kernel upgrade.

A hard reset erases all of the data stored in RAM memory and all RAM installed applications!
