Before FC4 was released there was a disussion about how to make the boot

But until now (FC5/FC6-rawhide) nothing has been done.
Early login was in development but it stopped,
Systemservices was never in a working state.
Any plans on improving the boot process in FC6?
I would suggest to use initng which is in review for extras now [1].
But to get it in the final release it would be better to have it in
rawhide rather than in extras.

First off I am sure you have a valid point. But I personally thing that booting has gotten faster from FC4 to FC5, and I know that I have a lot of services starting up. But with me, I do not boot that often, and when I do, i generally walk away (except for when I am busy, or botting the first few times).

But tell me, what makes fast booting important to you? I ask because I often wonder if people really need fast booting or something else? I believe some are just over impatient, no idea if that in any way applies to you.

Peace
