Ok,.. I upgraded using the 1.3 image and the whacky behavoir has went away. So it was defintely the logo uploader that caused all the proble to begin with. Just so you all know I used the linux command line uploaded to upload the boot image. The windows version did not work under VMWare for some odd reason,.. and of course I don't own any *real* windows machines.
