Cisco 851 - Power Outage - How to bring back online?

Tags: Cisco, 851
I have a Cisco 851 in one of our branch offices.
They have a 2.5 hour power outag last night (Thunder stroms...) and the 851 did not come back online.
After a 2 hour drive to the branch, I discover the router just needed a reload command.

Before I issued the reload command... this is what I saw on the router - see code snippit.

How can I setup the router so it comes back online once power has restored?
(Or was this a oddball flike??)

Thanks,

E.D.
