app notes- once i get this damned thing to boot through i'll be able to find out if omniswitch works

adb notes- adb remount, adb reboot, adb reboot recovery all work correctly

in adb shell - reboot , reboot recovery working correctly, meaning no need to call busybox reboot with -f like before.

goofy note- running make from adb shell with -h brings up the right stuff [no linker error, still failing to build it portable/static]

goofy note 2 - i like pie.
