Final question: Have you had any other ideas on how livecd boot speed might be improved?
I'm not sure if Pilgrim is implementing this or not, but prelinking the installed data directory before squashing it and making the ISO image is what we do with Kadischi built images. This allows the binary files and such to be pre-prelinked and thus will result in some faster booting times perhaps only a minor improvement, but is nevertheless a good idea.
Heh, I actually threw together the quick and dirty patch to do just this on Friday evening. Was planning on testing it today before sending it on :-)
