[ROM][32B/Dream][Dec23][Dwang][Donut][Speed and Stability][v1.17.1]

This ROM is completely 1.6 stock (framework, apps, etc) with the exception of the following enhancements:

1. Compcache enabled by default (no backing swap, just straight compcache)
2. Memory hack which gives you 107.5 megs of linux system memory
3. ROM works with both mt3g (32b) and g1 (dream).
4. Root enabled
5. Market should be fully working
6. Busybox
7. Loccy's enhanced Browser v1.5 with MT
8. Netfilter and iptables modules added to the kernel. Wifi tethering works with both "aNetShare" and "android-wifi-tether" apps.
9. Launcher with 5 screens
10. Apps2SD for G1/Dream users ext2/ext3 fs only [may need to format /system/sd (/dev/block/mmcblk0p2) partition if getting black screen]
11. Work Email App (Exchange Support)
12. All built-in apps optimized with zipalign and optipng
13. Wired usb tethering support. Download this app to enable http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/
14. Deadline IO Scheduler

Caveats:

* Because of the RAM Hack, 3d games will run slow!
* Does not support ext4 partition

Enjoy, I learned a lot during the process of making this ROM.

No screenshots. It looks just like stock. All changes are under the hood.

I tried flashing this over CM4.1.11.1 and stalled at a black screen, after the Android logo. Unfortunately I can't paste the lolcat (there was some kind of repetitive error) because I somehow erased it
I will try again later (tomorrow?) but meanwhile does anybody have any idea? Is it mandatory to wipe? (I'm such a lazy person, I hate to backup/wipe/reinstall/restore everything).
dwang, I love your posts and I'm pretty sure your ROM is worth trying so I'll keep trying.

For a2sd you may have to wipe and delete everything from /system/sd/. This ROM doesn't seem to be compatible with CM 4.1.xx. You should only have to do it once. Subsequent updates should not require a wipe.

I ran into this while testing a2sd.

Or try running fix_permissions and see if that fixes the black screen.
