Hello,
Are there some steps we can do in Yocto in order to reduce boot time ?
The steps you'd take with an image produced from yocto would be the same
as you'd take with any linux system.
Those steps are highly dependent on your target, your userspace, etc.
So there's not much too offer here as specific advice, just that you'll
need to look at systemd services, driver/rootfs detection wait states,
etc.
Hi,
I would please like to ask if there is advatage in using yocto build
system, over non build system like ubuntu, when dealing with boot time
optimization, or is it about the same procedure in both cases
(modifying filesystem)
It probably domes down to a matter of taste in build systems and
workflows.
The work to optimize the actual boot time would be very similar, i.e.
you'd be on the target profiling, changing packages, removing services,
adding options, etc.
But with oe-core/bitbake you can then make those changes permanently
part of an image by updating/appending/adding recipes to your own
layer.
There's a very fine grained control of options in oe, and if you had
to do such an optimization more than once, or maintain it over time,
there are advantages to being backed by a build system such as oe.
Cheers,
Bruce
