Resets a virtual system to its original image
This command returns a virtual system to the state it was in when originally created, by re-applying the original image. Alternately, you can select a different image to apply using the --image flag.
Be aware that ALL data on the system's filesystems will be lost when the reset is performed, so use it with care!
