However the playlogo (and any other file we choose) HAS to run AFTER the init.rc because the init.rc mounts the partitions.

That means running a custom rom is a little more tricky, because we need to kill system processes and restart them. I'm definatly up for making a custom rom, and have several ideas how to do it. I really want to port the sense UI actually.

As soon as i get a behold i'll start on it
Yeah, but thanks to this its gone from impossible to tedious. I'll help out once mine comes in.
