Hello! I have been looking into the boot times for my HP Pavilion DV9208NR and the fastest I have achieved is 1 minute 18 seconds. A full 30 seconds of that is starting redhat nash and udev. This is on an Athlon 64 X2 1.6 Ghz, so I do not see how someone can be getting a 20 second boot time from boot prompt to login screen when 30 seconds is spent on the nash and udev stuff. This is a stock Fedora 7 install with all update including kernel 3228. I have google around trying to find a way to improve this performance but I have had no luck. I am going to disable the quiet option on the kernel command line to see what is going on in the module department. Any thoughts, suggestions or ideas would be appreciated. -- John Registered Linux User 263680, get counted at http://counter.li.org
