FWIW, I would support this. As a data point, in my experience people don't count the bootloader time in deciding if a system 'boots fast' or not. If they see a fast boot from _after_ the bootloader to desktop, they consider it to be a fast booting system. Yeah, unless you bypass the boot menu this isn't a particularly logical perspective, but people are not that logical =) so I don't believe we'd lose much in terms of people's perceptions of Fedora as 'booting fast' or otherwise, by making such a change. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
