No. Read <URL:http://www.fooishbar.org/blog//tech/ubuntu/fastBootMiniBoF-2004-12-09-13-45.html> to find out some of the things they did. One of the low-hanging fruits are to add a readahead package (and the related readahead-list package) to Debian. No idea why no-one did this already, but I registered a WNPP request for it (#325885). Personally, I believe we should speed up the boot process considerably by adding and using dependency info for all init.d scripts, including a read-ahead step in the boot process, and by replacing the current hotplug package with something faster. Ubuntu did the latter two, as well as some other tricks. -- Petter Reinholdtsen _______________________________________________ initscripts-ng-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/initscripts-ng-devel
