We should use <keycombo> tags around keyboard commands. We use this
in many places in the Handbook, and where we don't use it, its a bug.

In my free time, I fixed and updated the install chapter
so that we may close, yet another pr. I hope this can
be applied quickly to keep the handbook up to date.
Thanks alot

I noticed a few niglets while reading the printed copy of the handbook. Firstly, the default / size was changed to 100M. Secondly, I thought it useful to mention the other way to reboot the system (in case you've wedged something badly during install.. It happens..)
