Hi everbody,
I would like to know if someone knows where I can find some guide, tutorial
that can help me to improve the performance of Fedora on my laptop in start up.
I think that I need to recompile the kernel and dress it on my computer and
remove all unnecessary services. It is true?
Where I can find some additional information??
Thank you very much
Bye

I've had a quick look at this for Fedora 17 and it seems pretty good albeit
brutal and unrealistic
http://www.harald-hoyer.de/personal/blog/fedora-17-boot-optimization-from-15-to-3-seconds
Probably the most useful tip is Don't Use LVM.
Booting with no services saves time to login prompt, what is time to useful system?
One of the reasons I stick with Fedora is that they have made the effort to make selinux work on the system, something I feel adds a layer of security worth a few seconds at boot. That's my priority, it may not be yours.
