That sounds reasonable. Not every now and then you change your hardware. I 
always turn off kudzu/harddrake. Whenever I change my hardware, I just run them 
manually. That's all.

It would be good if BIOS takes similar approach. Booting an OS shouldn't need 
more than 30 seconds.(My machine does boot in 30 seconds. 30 seconds after lilo 
prompt..;-))
