chris z Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 now if i only knew enough to understand what that guy said...... :? actually, i sorta understand what he's talking about. unfortunately, i'm at work on a Win2K machine, so i can't play. :( thanks for that link, though. i'll have to reread that several more times when i'm home. my current MDK boot time is around 4 minutes, which has always aggravated me. i've disabled every start up service that is not absolutely necessary for my purposes, & that's the best boot time i can get. if i can even knock that in half, that's just one more incentive for me to give Window$ the boot! (pun intended :wink: ) Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I just realize my own technique is now lost for all but me, because of club-nihil disappearance. I'll try to post it here sometime soon... (I still have my club-nihil posts at home) Yves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theYinYeti Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 I've read the article. It's excellent! Thanks for the link. I'll try and see if/how it combines with my technique, hopefully for an even better start-up time... Yves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted September 18, 2003 Author Share Posted September 18, 2003 You could probably spend WEEKS in IBM's Linux Library. It is a very helpful site. http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 thanks, great article....now I maybe now (quite decently) why my internetstarts up in parallel. Starting up my internetconnection doesn't really cost me more (noticable) time than not starting it up at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlc Posted September 19, 2003 Author Share Posted September 19, 2003 Nice tutorial from IBM.http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linu...ary/l-boot.html You've been on Slashdot haven't you!! I know coz i get the daily digest James Actually NO, as crazy as this might sound. I NEVER go to slashdot, I just don't like them very much. For news I go to osnews, distrowatch, lwn.net and some others. I don't know why, but I just don't care to got to /. What's in the daily digest? Is it a daily e-mail w/up2date news?

jlc Posted September 19, 2003 Author Share Posted September 19, 2003 Well, I was thinking and figured out were I found the IBM site for Linux. It was through some tutorials on Gentoo! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphitus Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 That surprises me. Over the last few days you've posted 3 things that were on slashdot. Suppose they could have easily been found elsewhere AJems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted September 20, 2003 Author Share Posted September 20, 2003 osnews and lwn probably carry a lot of the same news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
