(In reply to mq from comment #4)

A suggestion: implement a boot configuration option to only initialize the =
root
device during boot, while other devices would be left to initialize in the
background. Later if a an operation is attempted on a device (such as mount=
),
if the device has not yet initialized, the operation would block until the
device is ready. This would considerably decrease boot times on all compute=
rs
which have optical drives that force read the media at initialization, or h=
ard
disks (not hosting root, data storage) with slow spin-up.
