DOC2k booting speed ...

[Philippe]

Hi,
 
I’m using 
-          doc2000 (32MB)
-          via c3 800
-          linux kernel 2.4.22
-          mtd mtd-snapshot-20040124.tar.bz2
-          I use nftl
 
 
I have build a little system (kernel+initrd). My initrd is about 4MB
compressed (10MB uncompressed)
I have set up grub in the doc
 
When grub is booting, it takes 10 seconds to load the kernel and 35 seconds
to load the initrd.
 -> 5MB loaded : 45sec
 
When I boot from the Doc but with loading from the hard drive it takes 1
seconds to load the kernel and 2 seconds to load the initrd.
 -> 5MB loaded : 3sec
 
on the m-sys web, they say that the DOC2k should have a read rate about
1MB/s so if I’m right everything should be loaded in less than 10sec
 
If anyone has a clue 
 
Thanks
 
Philippe
