The Flash was darn slow both booting and starting up the EMC. Unlike you though I used a default install of Ubuntu to it. That is the only reason. I'm reasonably certain that it can be made to work with some pruning and simplified boot routines.
I don't see that thermal BIOS parameter at all here. Sounds like you found the issue though. It must have to do with the fanless version. I turn off things like audio and legacy stuff because that gets in the way of rtai. I don't have the board hooked up just now so can't see the version.
