DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Boot sorting the KNOPPIX image

Fordi,

Wow. Great idea.

I was thinking further on this. And I am by no means a guru like yourself, but here are some ideas I've had.

1) I think that this would work. cloop uses sequential reads per this article:
http://www.knoppix.net/forum....tart=40
and other stuff I've read.

2) What about using SquashFS? While I am no big supportor of the SquashFS filesystem, it does appear (at least in theory) to have major perfomance advantages.

Sorry I meant to add more here but hit the wrong button.

3) Kernel and modules, because of the specifc hardware that the qemu envirnment provides, I would think that the kernel and modules could be compiled with only the support for those devices. (I don't know is it?)
