Booting Linux even faster

Filed in archive Tips & Tricks on February 16, 2008

System boot-up, specially with Linux, is often spent whilst making coffee. More often than not, it takes a minute to have the system up and running, i.e., ready for abuse. So, any tip on how to speed up the boot sequence short of keeping your computer in hibernate mode and not shutting it down is always welcome.

We have published a tip on how to do this not too long ago but I have found another tip to squeeze the boot-up sequence to even a shorter period.

I am wondering when can we have an instant-on computing experience - that'd be sweet.
