According to foreign media reports, at the Linux Plumbers Conference held some time ago, auke Kok and Arjan van de Ven, a Linux engineer at Intel's open-source technology center, demonstrated how to start a Linux System in five seconds on the Eee PC. The Eee PC is configured with solid state disks. The two engineers used the modified Fedora software and Moblin software to help complete the 5-second Linux boot record.

How can we do this? Arjan said, first of all, we need to understand that we should not change the Linux system to start in five seconds, rather than saving one or two seconds of start time, instead, it saves time for the entire system to start, so that each start step is completed within the allocated time. The secret is to stop elements that users do not need or that have already copied functions elsewhere, such as Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux) configuration overhaul ), the user does not actually need the initrd file system that consumes time.
