Hi list,

This series of patches overhaul the boot scripts for faster boot.  The
numbers are available in my previous mail:

http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/devel/2008-October/002950.html

Most of the patches are simple and the filenames should summarize the
change.  The biggest changes are that initscripts is replaced by
initscripts-openmoko and udev on om-gta01/om-gta02 does not do coldplug.
The new initscripts are based on old ones, with the assumption that the
scripts are run on a modern linux system.  And the splash is gone.

Most of the changes are restricted to openmoko distro.  And the changes
are done in a way that the distro still stays neutral (does not bind to
GTA hardwares).  I plan to push the changes to org.openmoko.dev before
the end of this week and do improvements from there.  Please let me know
if you see anything wrong or have other ideas.

olv
