Ubuntu's done this in its stock installer since 12.10.
One of the things I trimmed from that already long post is the
observation that booting through BIOS + GRUB + LUKS on a traditional
laptop takes about 20 seconds, by which point you've already got a
Chrome window open on a Chromebook.
20 seconds after that, the Linux laptop gets through the systemd scripts
to a GUI login prompt.
And 20 seconds after *that*, the system has finally stopped swapping
enough that the first Iceweasel window can pop up.
If you decide that Chromebooks are not for you, my previous Linux
netbook ran Crunchbang Linux, a Debian 7 derivative specifically
optimized for low-resource machines. Install Chrome on it, and you've
got something kind of like a Chromebook, if you squint.

It starts up a *lot* faster than Ubuntu. Still slower than a
Chromebook, though.
