Thanks Shyjumon, I had tried that and surprisingly - every other message in the logcat is about being "Out of Memory"! The OLPC has 256 MB of RAM. I thought that should be OK - But Surfaceflinger runs out of memory, new programs cannot load because of being out of memory etc.,
I wonder if thats because of loading everything into a ramdisk at /dev/ ram0 - May be if I changed the bootable/initrd scripts to do a normal mount of the USB Key rather than everything from the memory, I will have some RAM free - Not sure if there is logic at all in what I am saying, but I am gonna give it a shot this evening and will let you guys know whats happening.
