I suppose you could see if DOS would be quicker for your application. Anyhow, take every device driver that is not necessary out of your kernel config file. I imagine you are using GENERIC, which has twenty different RAID drivers and fifteen different Ethernet chipsets. Most embedded systems take between 30s and 1min to get booted, in that sense it is just like a standard pc. Hell my 400mhz mips (probably 2-3x faster than your board) MikroTik 532 takes 25 seconds or so to get booted up, and RouterOS is only 7mb. -- Phillip Hocking Director of Operations Network Engineer No-Wire Communications phocking@no-wire.net www.no-wire.net
