rebooting webOS

When you're in webOS and want to switch to your Android boot, what's the easiest way to do that? I'm not a fan of powering down the tablet and then turning it right back on. I know there's no spinning hard drive to damage like in the old days, but I'd still rather have a reboot option. Is there any way to accomplish this?
 
Do you have preware on it? There's a patch that adds more options to the power menu, and one of them is reboot. Once you reboot it should take you to the bootloader
 
webOS 3.0.4 is larger than 3.0.2, so if you add an overclock kernel, you might cause problems due to a certain partition having no free space.

In my case, the webOS OC kernel caused SOD (sleep of death) issues in CM7, which went away when I uninstalled the webOS kernel.
 
I'm not really interested in overclocking because I'm quite happy with the performance as it is. I've seen videos where two TP's are side-by-side, and the overclocked one is light years faster, but I've also heard of others saying they saw no difference. I figure as long as I'm happy, no need to mess with a good thing.
 
My two roommates and I all have TPs and all of us have seen giant improvements after OCing it. We all just put it up to where it was rated (1.5) and it's crazy how much difference that makes (kinda makes sense since it's a 25% increase)

Basically it's just perfectly smooth. It used to catch and lag when you scrolled on something or opened the app drawer or changed homescreens or whatever, now it's smooth like butter :D
