I found this neat command from an iPod Touch Fans forum thread here which allows you to change the normal "Apple" logo only boot screen to the screen with a bunch of lines of code/commands scrolling through the screen (i.e. verbose mode). If you've used ZiPhone before, you'll know what I am talking about. I read through some of the posts in the iTF thread and some people are claiming that verbose mode made their devices boot faster.
Here's a few videos of it:
YouTube - NEW iPOD TOUCH BOOTSCREEN
YouTube - iPhone Hack: Boot in Verbose Mode
To get the verbose mode:
1. Make sure you have BSD Subsystem 2.1 installed.
2. Open a terminal
3. Issue this command:
4. Rebootnvram boot-args="-v"
5. You'll see the Apple logo for a few seconds and then it'll start showing the verbose mode like ZiPhone and in the YouTube video.
To go back to the normal mode:
Same steps as above except issue this command to clear the verbose argument:
nvram boot-args=
Bum...this is awesome.
