boot time challenge

[Hiroaki Kondo]

Hi List!!

I think that SuSE is desktop oriented OS but Fedora is not at all just like 
server use.
So it will be one of character of Fedora, it doesn't matter.

To set this distribution makes light weight by default install and can be 
full spec server with some important daemons.

What do you think?
