 Attached is a patch to pilgrim to:
  a) add a 'pretty boot' mode: holding down the left directional pad during
 power-up will hide the linux console messages, to help us develop a pretty
 boot.  Works by freezing DCON just before leaving OFW, and unfreezing it
 during activation or once sugar is up.  X startup currently unfreezes the
 DCON too early; dcbw was looking at this.
  b) added the proper module set to the olpc ramdisk for jffs2 and ext3
 builds.  Was missing various wireless-related modules.

 Also attached is olpcrd 0.14 rpm.  This should get installed in
 dev:/var/www/sugar/rpms.  The new package:
  a) adds a pretty gui for activation (trac #1328)
  b) activation over wireless from schoolserver (harmless, but not expected
 to work yet)
  c) ought to fix booting an ext3 image from a slow usb device
