initng-scripts is ready, but there's a bug in initng that prevents the
release (#799).

BTW, I've done some experimentation on boot speed, and found two
significant bottlenecks:
1) system/udev/filldev: takes 4~5 secs, sometimes more.
2) system/clock: takes 3 secs approx.

Without these delays, we probably could boot in about 5 secs (including
an X display manager) on many systems.
