@richwhite : if you use power kernel 'only' for overclocking purpose, you should stick with version 42, prominent new feature in the next versions is related with usb hostmode support & uboot integration (except for v46)
Thanks. Was wondering more if there's other things in v42 that i'm unaware of?
What's usb hostmode anyway?

ok found hostmode. So that's not available in 42, only 45+?

Is there an easy way with uboot to add several kernels on your system and a simple selection method/menu when booting the box? And even better, also be able to specify the partition of the root filesystem....

E.g. more or less like grub.

That would make it easy to try alternatives like meego and nitdroid and different kernels without the hassle of flashing kernels or crafiting special sd cards...
