They could also speed the boot with this change:

Code:

# Temporary fix to show the WiFi mac address to the user
if [ ! -e /mnt/free/wlan_mac.txt ]
then
    modprobe cf8385 2>/dev/null
    echo "WiFi card MAC address:" > /mnt/free/wlan_mac.txt
    ifconfig wlan0 | awk '$4 ~ /HWaddr/ { mac = $5; gsub(/:/, "-", mac); print m
ac }' >> /mnt/free/wlan_mac.txt
/usr/bin/wireless.sh stop
fi
