Linux in response to '5 second boot' (naive attempt at sReadahead)

(In response to my own post, here) I tried out sReadahead this morning. That experience was very disappointing initial testing. I will describe the process here: Download the source, from moblin.org and compile it. Install readahead-list, created by our own Robbat2 Use the file lists from readahead-list and pass it to sreadahead’s generate_fileset command cd /etc ; generate_filelist /etc/readahead-list/runlevel-boot (I actually tried to concatenate both runlevel-boot and runlevel-default with no additional results.) Shove sreadahead in the readahead-list init scripts reboot End result: No improvement in boot time with either readahead-list or sReadahead.
