I think it would be more productive to spend the time to write real sentences and detailed explanations. Right now you're only in the "no thanks" mode and it's very hard to understand your concerns. You can't blame people for not understanding you when you are the one who has difficulties explaining basic things in public. > > Have you read Sascha comment? > Yes you do not read what I write. I write *runtime* not *compiling* time But for runtime to work, you need to boot at least once. The concern here is to get it to boot the first time, and for this, extracting the binary blob is needed.
