It's from the bootstrap guide, format data and cache is just a little more complete than wipe. It's not a problem at all, some dev's specify to do so.

If all that is correct than the install should be clean. What concerns me is that most of these roms mount the system automatically. I don't think that would make the difference he is talking about but I'm sure it is possible.

Well, sounds like he is not in a bootloop anymore.
