*	@Summary: This simple executable with start and pet
*	the watchdog of a Beaglebone Black, and once started,
*	will intentionally abandon the FD associated with the
*	watchdog, so that if the service gets killed, the 
*	will reboot. In order to prevent creating a service 
*	that is unrecoverable, a delay must be incorporated
*   prior to watchdog kickoff
