Tested on a 32 bit Linux nightly (beta) B2G Desktop build and the tip of Gaia. It seems the First Time Experience app gets stuck due to some race condition, preventing Gaia from running. A workaround is to replace "if (launchFTU === false)" with "if (true)" in window_manager.js in the system app. STR: * Build Gaia with "make" (DEBUG doesn't work) * Start B2G with the generated profile Expected: * FTU app displayed Actual: * Blank white screen
Blocks: 816961
Another workaround that requires only configuration changes is to remove the ftu.manifestURL setting from settings.json after generating the profile.
