CD boot time of KNOPPIX shortens by "LCAT"
In order to decrease the boot duration, we have customized KNOPPIX.
and named "Accelerated-KNOPPIX".
http://www.alpha.co.jp/ac-knoppix/index_en.html
Accelerated-KNOPPIX1.0 is based on KNOPPIX4.02 Japanese version.
We managed to boost the performance by using LCAT package and boot duration
has been shortened by half.
http://sourceforge.jp/projects/lcat/
Now, We have customized KNOPPIX 5.0.1 English version released on the 2nd of June 2006.
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.jp/lc...ed.iso.torrent
Each boot time is about half time as follows.
PC1:Panasonic Let's Note W2
CPU:Pentium M 900MHz MEM:512MB CD-Drive:24x
140sec --------> 59sec
PC2:SHARP MURAMASA
CPU:Pentium M 1.6GHz MEM:1GB CD-Drive:24x
170sec --------> 97sec
Please refer to the manual (English version) for the method of speed-up by LCAT.

We hope that the LCAT package will be included in the main stream.

Hello,
I compared boot time of Original KNOPPIX 5.0.1 CD and Accelerated KNOPPIX 5.0.1 CD.
The machine is IBM ThinkPAD T42(Pentium M 1.8GHz, 24x CD-Drive, 2GB Memory).
The results were following.
Original KNOPPIX 5.0.1 CD 2m40s
Accelerated KNOPPIX 5.0.1 CD 1m40s
Accelerated was 1.6 faster than original KNOPPIX.
I took QuickTime video. Have fun.

We compared the boot times of Original KNOPPIX and KNOPPIX-J-LCAT on IBM ThinkPAD T42. The boot time was 2:30 on original and 1:30 on KNOPPIX-J-LCAT. Please have the video if you are interested.

KNOPPIX-J-LCAT includes "bootchart" to take a log of boot procedure. Bootchart is activated with a bootoption "bootchart".
Example) boot: knoppix bootchart lang=us
The log on ThinkPAD T42 is also downlaodable. Have fun!
