I think I found out what it was.

I had Opera 9 checked for the ROM.

After I unchecked it and re-compiled the ROM, the phone started right up. It's actually (Opera 9) 9MB in size - the trade-off is to uncheck MSOffice to have Opera 9. But since I use Word, Excel, and PPT more than surfing, I'll stick with Office.

After the ROM was loaded, I added Opera 9 because I had 33MB storage free on the phone. Now I have both.

Thanks for your help! Too bad there isn't some way that the BuildOS could have a read-out of how much storage has been used versus how much is available for all the program and utility choices.

Now I'm back in the groove of trying new kitchen combos for WM6.1!
