Never mind, it's not actually a sysctl but it looks like it was enabled anyway.

The next post says it should be fixed in 2.6.30 without the option though. <http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-eeepc-devel%40lists.alioth.debian.org/msg01759.html> > excepted that with a Lenny+Gnone system, I go > to 1'01 to boot :-( I wonder how you can boot in less than 10s, as my > system only load all needed(?) modules with udev in about 20 s ! module-init-tools from unstable is much faster. I can't advise upgrading it alone, but it is possible [1]. I guess the other 40 seconds is your punishment for choosing a hard drive model :-). "readahead"/"prefetch" would help a bit with that, I dunno if there's a package in Lenny. Alan [1] Newer versions of module-init-tools will warn about config files, which should now be given a ".conf" extension - and some time in the future it will ignore config files without the extension. You might be able to downgrade it again once that happens, but you need to be very confident that you can recover a broken system, and be able to revert the config files in case they gained new options which are not backwards-compatible. This is not a drill, m-i-t is under active development and has broken compatibility in the past :-). _______________________________________________ Debian-eeepc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-eeepc-devel
