tinycore_2.4rc4
Jason W:
Bigpcman - that is the emelfm2 startup script creating a symlink. There are several of my startup scripts that echo to the screen instead of being redirected to /dev/null, Wmaker being another. I will fix those by piping to /dev/null or using a quiet option in the commands being issued.
bigpcman:
Thanks Jason for the explanation.
I'm wondering if anyone else has seen an increase in boot time? This release 2.4rc4 takes 25% longer to boot than 2.4rc3 on vista qemu.
See my previous screen shot for extensions and boot codes.

I must have unconsciously uninstalled it, after a round of problems. (BTW/ wouldn't have caught that with rotdash..)

I have been adding more error reporting with the default rotdash clean boot. A missing dependency is now shown in the next cut

I have no interest in direct support of Qemu/Windows and such.
However, it only makes sense that intregrity checking and enhanced error reporting come at a cost. Although, I don't believe it is 25%. A previous post seemd to suggest the contrary and was about the same as current release.
bigpcman:
Robert I can appreciate your position on qemu and it's no big deal to me either since I only use it for convenient testing of tc. In the event others are interested here are more details on the qemu boot delay. I turned on "loglevel=10" to see what was going on. Booting 2.4rc3 results in:
Booting 2.4.rc4 results in:
The extra delay comes right after the squashfs message. It's as if squashfs is hung up on something.
edit: The boot time for 2.4rc4 from an iso cd with no extensions comes in around 38 seconds on my dell 640 about the same as 2.3.1. So this delay appears to be related to something qemu is having a problem with.
