If you have disabled all services that you can do without and you are
still unhappy about the boot-up time, you might want to take a look at
the "initng" package. Quoting from the package description:
Initng is a full replacement of the old and in many ways deprecated sysvinit
tool. It is designed with speed in mind, doing as much as possible
asynchronously. In other words: It will boot your Unix-system much faster,
and give you more control and statistics over your system.
The basic premise is that startup commands can be launched as soon as their
dependencies are met. This limits the effect of bottlenecks like I/O
operations; while one program is performing I/O, another can be utilizing
the processor. Initng tracks the individual service dependencies in its
configuration files.
It is designed to use a minimum of system resources and to boot your system
quickly and safely.
