Hello all, After less than a year using Arch, I'm amazed about how fine it works. I use it even on my personal web/mail/ftp/otherthings server. It has helped me to re-encounter the reason I fell in love GNU/Linux a few years ago :).
But I am not happy at all: I "feel" that my laptop is not booting fast enough. Of course, I am not blaming Arch. probably, it is my fault due to an overload of booting processes or some misconfiguration. I would be pleased If you boys (and girls! ;) ) could help me to analyse what I am doing wrong? Or if is it normal, an I am just too ambitious :P. As a starting point, I uploaded the output of bootchart at http://www.cub3.net/img/bootchart.png . As you can see, it lasts 39 seconds to boot (+ the time of loading Xfce, not showed on the graph). The computer is a laptop, Pentium M 1.6 GHz, RAM 512 Mb with an out-of-the-box kernel2.6.21-suspend2*. Thank you for your time! Sachiel *Yes, I know that I can resume to disk to have the best boot time, but learning what could optimize my normal boot sequence can help me to understand better how my system works :) _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
