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.
