I have noticed that, for example when I boot up Harmattan using the Nitdroid kernel (zImage.pr13) it is really laggy for the first minute or so. The booting takes a long time, the spinner just keeps on spinning. Nitdroid, however starts up quite quickly. (and if the L2 cache control was patched in, would propably start up even faster)

However, for me there has never been any failures to boot, on non-patched kernels it just takes a bit longer.

I wonder if there is some installed application that theyosh has that might complain about longer boot time, which would then cause the failure.

It seems I need to put up a patched kernel to ubiboot page for people who do not want to compile it for themselves.
