Truth is am never 100% sure, but I can tell you that the whole setup just seemed like a reboot. When I did 1.0 with a backup it took at least 5-10minutes if I remember correctly, and on top of that I could see an actual progress and things being done on screen. Also I don't notice kangerade scripts icon anywhere on my phone either. Kinda noobish here so forgive me if I sound like it. One thing I will say I have yet to successfully install a ROM with a custom kernel. For some reason my phone does not like custom kernels, but even those show stuff on screen when failing.
