A lot of time during boot is the IDE/SCSI initialisation and partition check. If you remove IDE & SCSI support from the kernel (you'll need to use a disk-on-chip and NFS root), then your boots can get very quick indeed. Combine this with the Linux BIOS project and you have <1 second boot times. Although no HDD :P Makes you realise why linux is used for so much embedded work. Kind Regards Crispin Wellington
