Hi there, I have a problem after install fonthack-1.2, i can't restart my Kindle Touch or it will stuck at boot screen.

I followed the instruction, and override default sans-serif with Chinese fonts, everything is fine. But When I try to use "settings > Menu > Restart Your Kindle", the shutdown process is success, then it stuck at boot screen. The only way to get me out of this is booting up with USB plugs into the computer to get Kindle in USB mode.

I also notice that even if I launch Font Hack, initialize a font > Re-cache > Restart framework, but haven't applied this font to any system font family(no 99-xxxx.conf generated), a "Restart" also stuck at boot screen.

My guess: Kindle stucks at the first 00-xxxx.conf loading 4 fonts from /mnt/us/fonthack. I use four Chinese fonts which are about 42MB in total, I don't know if that's the problem.
