perhaps you can set the firstboot script to run from another startup script and invoke it in the background, then replace the other altered startup script with a vanilla copy after firstboot is done? that way, you finish booting to the point that init loads the getty's for login, while firstboot continues in the background ... or else use a double script setup, doing anything that needs done before login, then invoking a script to finish up in the background from there ...
also, any chance i could get a copy of your scripts? it would make setting up my own much easier if i had something to start with :-) -- Poison [BLX] Joshua M.
