As far as I know, eFuse is a CPU instruction (just like any other), it only activates if you used the stock recovery and/or stock bootloader, so I guess there's no risk to flash stuff trough the custom Recovery.
I get you're anxious, but dude calm down
. When it's released there will be lot a fuss on the forum, and a thread just for that, so you WILL notice it when it happens. Don't keep asking about it here, there's no point . The 2ndInit was an important step, but I'm guessing it will take a while until we got CM7 for the mainstream on the Defy.
it is real, i am stupid to think the screenshot was fake
he has not only brought cyanogenmod to defy, but its the first gingerbread rom ever for defy. and glad to see more devs starting to work for defy

Yea, such a great day for us, defy owners.
Thanks for bringing here this custom recovery menu.

I've not understand a thing:
If 2ndinit it's installed and then you install CM7, is that possible to have two roms onboard at the same time?

Yes it is, with some modifications and changes on the 2nd init.rc and dependant files. There is going to be an inbuild functionality called 2nd Boot that will allow you to do that easily on the future versions of this MOD. You can create an extra partition on your sd card, format it to an ext3 partition and change the init files so that the sd partition will mounted for /system instead of the internal system partition, extract the system files there and boot using 2nd init. Might sound like a tough thing to do, but it will get easier when the 2nd boot function of the boot menu will be ready.
Fantastic!!!
Thanks for the explanation

Now on to a new era in Defy android Development thank you for your contribution ksubedi you definitely set the ball rolling around here. I cant wait to try Quarx's CM7.
I've updated the app with version 0.4.5 of the MOD . Thanks ksubedi again. Now let's see how CM7 progresses
. Thanks ksubedi again. Now let's see how CM7 progresses 
Korean Developers have released Android BootMenu v0.5.0 (20110415), hope someone can upload the file.
I have messed several times with the boot partition (which would be equivalent to flashing a custom kernel) and the phone would go directly to USB bootloader init mode upon power on.
So it's a soft brick. You can recover by flashing the kernel CG with RSD Lite.
bootmenu release v0.5.1
