Please excuse my ignorance, but why would you need to reboot? And why would
the process of bootsrapping need to scan the content of the entire card /a
priori/ and be slowed by the capacity? There is no such issue with Palm OS
devices (cards whose size exceeds 1.7 GB can cause trouble however). And
unless you have a LifeDrive or plenty of hackware, it take just a couple of
seconds to boot (maybe once a month, with reliable S/W).
