I've applied this patch on the following configuration: LK2.09.5(MT v 2.3) + DVM ARM11 optimized
During start ups and at other random times, I was having errors like "The application is not working: Wait/Block" (I don't remember exactly the test).
Most of the times the error was caused by system process.

The good news is that after applying this patch, the error stopped showing, and the Spica is working well. I think that the problem was connected to the low space on /data partition.
Can someone confirm?

It would be a good idea to include it in the future releases of the ROMs as an option during cooking or, even better, in Samdroid Tools.

How to get back to original ?

Just remove /system/sd/userinit.sh. Dalvik-cache is created in /data/ (default place) during each boot.

it's an awesome script! Who wouldn't use it?

[darth_llamah]

Who wouldn't use it?

People that use apps2sd- impossible to use both.

I might be writing more scripts so might look at this as I've not tried cyanogen yet and might use apps2sd if I can I'll try to release a patch for apps2sd and dalvik relocate
