If possible, the introduction should state when this system recovery is applicable and when not. Maybe also refer to the ordinary factory reset API feature which should usually be used instead, if possible. Also what the implications of the following statement may not clear to users. How do they know if this applies for their case or not? What are the consequences for them of this information?

The system recovery only works if the GUID partition table (GPT) and the partitions itself on the disk are not corrupted.

Lets not make this a "guide" but place it in /nethsm/ folder directly.
