susp whatever it's called? not that good.

kernel boots, init is called, and then it detects it needs to restart the 
system. it saves to less time. will measure soon (+you need a _big_ swap for 
that, did not have it in my last setup).

how about not "depmod -a" each boot?
where is this done in mandrake? anyone knows?

mandrake parralezises some scripts.

network is done by pppoe, and static address 10.0.0.5. i will move it to S99 
now. it will save me 5 seconds from my boot (dialing takes time sometimes).

do you know if xcfe has service menu? i want a "start menu" for this desktop 
as well.
