I have now tried with a Transcend, Lexar and SanDisk Ultra--all 4GB, all 
producing the same results. Boot time is > 25m.

I have posted two videos to YouTube... boring I know, but may provide some 
intelligence? The first video is of starting to boot into AstLinux 1.0.0--I 
stop it after the "Loading runnix..." prompt appears. The second video is of 
booting into my working copy of AstLinux 0.7. There is a noticeable difference!
AstLinux 1.0.0: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GizF9Z4Znv0
AStLinux 0.7: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd0lOpmgdW8

cheers,
   Shamus
