Right. The current behavior in unlocked mode is exactly the same as it 
was before.

I've still not managed to make my laptop actually boot even with what 
appears to be the correct manual boot commands.  Kernel panics with no 
init.  So I'm missing a detail somewhere.

I'm headed off-line for the next 3 days.  When I'm back on Sunday I'll 
patch up olpc.fth to work like secure-mode.
