You keep using the word "vainilla" repeatedly. Do you mean 'vanilla' (implying a plain and simple flavor of something), or is that a funny word made from the combination of vain and vanilla or something? Genuinely curious about the etymology of 'vainilla' here if it isn't a mistake.

Edit: After saying outloud, "Man! I wish there was a way I could look up information on the Internet." and Googled it, I have come to find out that "vainilla" is a Spanish version of the word "vanilla"... although, to English speakers, "vainilla" in the context of reports of failures to get the open kernel working DOES seem like an appropriately funny combination of 'vain' attempts at a 'vanilla' kernal.
