Enable Ubuntu8.04 quickly in 5 seconds

It takes several seconds to start the screen (if a set-top box exists, it will take more time), but now two strong people have started the computer in five seconds, and the graphic interface is started. When the startup is completed, the task starts from the power on until the CPU, storage device, and desktop are in the STANDBY state. At this time, the computer can execute the task immediately. At the Linux development conference, the two strong men started the system in five seconds using the Asus EPC and Ubuntu8.04 modified versions of the operating system. The time allocation is as follows: 1st seconds: loading the system

When the startup is completed, the task starts from the power on until the CPU, storage device, and desktop are in the STANDBY state. At this time, the computer can execute the task immediately. At the Linux development conference, the two strong men started the system in five seconds using the Asus EPC and Ubuntu 8.04 modified version.

The time allocation is as follows:

1st seconds: load the system kernel;

2nd seconds: create a user space;

3rd seconds: Load X.org;

4th and 5 seconds: load the graphic interface.

On October 16, September 18 this year, two Intel Linux kernel developers, Auke Kok and Arjan Van de Ven, reported a research result at the Linux maintainer Conference held in Portland: fast Booting ). Their PPT slides have a total of 25 pages. They use Ubuntu 8.04 to take every small step in the computer startup process and analyze them one by one to find out why it takes more than 40 seconds to start Ubuntu (in fact, ). They found that there was a great waste of time throughout the startup process. What they are pursuing is not "Faster Booting" (Faster startup), but "Fast Booting" (Faster startup. They proposed that the computer be "started" (in the above sense) within five seconds ). They started the computer in five seconds after performing an Asus PC demonstration in public, and the result was successful, which aroused warm applause from the participants.
