Does anyone know of a way to decrease the startup/boot time for the system? I’ve heard rumor of Linux distros that can be pared down to yield 4 second start times…but have yet to see how it is done…and if so, could it be done for the Bug?

Hi pperrone,

  Well, first off you’ll be happy to know that our next version (currently in QA) will boot faster by many seconds.  But in general, you can increase boot time simply by removing programs at start that you don’t need.  For example if you do not need a GUI you can remove matchbox.  Or, if you do not need wireless networking you can remove connman.  These files are contained in /etc/rc[1,3,5].d directories on the BUG.

hope that helps

Thank you Ken. The names in /etc/rc.x.d are sometimes cryptic. Is there a list of the programs launched at start along with their names in the /etc/rc.x.d directories so that we can better assess which ones we need and which ones we don’t need?

Also, any rough sense, if after we go through the above steps, how much improvement we’d get on boot time? For use as an embedded controller in some of our apps, we’d need the boot time to be under 4 seconds. If we had it down to 15 seconds, it would be worth considering still. But beyond that, it if the above steps don’t get us anywhere near these targets, it would be helpful to know before we embark down that path.

Thanks!!

FYI…I removed the S22connman files from rc2 and rc3, and I set the run level to 3 in /etc/inittab. The BugBase doesn’t reboot after doing that.

Paul,

  Yes, you’ll need to keep the runlevel at 5.  To get the kind of speed you are looking for more radical measures will be in order.  I suggest you build a kernel with a stripped-down rootfs and boot that from flash using initfs.  Doing this will require pretty solid knowledge of Linux and OpenEmbedded.  Customizing the existing BUG production release will not result in anywhere near the boot time you are looking for.

hope that helps

Thanks Ken. Indeed, we’re not interested in doing our own Linux install. Would rather leverage what someone else has done to provide a rapid boot strap.

Anyway, any hints on SSH-ing back into the Bug or somehow getting back into it after setting the runlevel to 3, so that we can set it back to 5?

Best,

Paul

Paul,

  Can you mount the SD card in a Linux PC?  If so you can mount it and modify the init level from there.  You’ll need a SD card reader.

thx

Isn’t it funny how we www.coachfactorystoreec.com/ Coach Factory Store always want what we can’t have? The girl with the round and pert backside wishes that her rear were 5 times smaller. Meanwhile, the girl with the non existent posterior wishes to achieve a larger butt. Well, if the grass is greener on the other side, just water yours! If you’ve got a small behind, you can create the illusion of a larger one with butt enhancing jeans. Here’s how to do it. Look for light weight denim – This material is very stiff and heavy. If you try to stuff a flat butt into denim jeans, it will only create a flatter looking behind. A little stretch goes a long way – Your butt enhancing jeans should additionally contain some stretch. A mixture of 98 percent cotton and 2 percent lycra is best. This combination of lycra and cotton, especially when it’s in a nice tight-weave fabric that’s fitted through the hip and thigh area will help lift your buttocks. Too much lycra and your jeans may start to ripple like a pair of leggings. If there’s not enough cotton content, there won’t be enough structure to hold you up. It’s all in the pockets – The most effective trick for creating the illusion of a bigger butt is to choose jeans with flap pockets. The added bulk of the flap will enhance and add dimension to your tiny tush. True Religion is notoriously famous for their flap pocket designs. You can also try Hudson, Rock & Republic, Frankie B and Paige for addition flap pocket styles. Pocket placement – If you’re not a fan of flap pockets, or if you’ve already bought too many of them, you can also try denim with regular pockets. Be sure to aim for a pair with smaller pockets that sit higher and this will help make your rear look lifted. Cut is also important – Look for jeans with a slight tapering at www.coachfactoryonliness.com/ Coach Factory Online the knee, such as a straight leg or skinny style. This cut will make your bum look a bit larger in comparison to the rest of your body. Great styles to try are True Religion Billy, Julie or Stella, Siwy Harmah or Rose, and Hudson Emily or Paige. How low can you go – Actually, you don’t want to go too low when it comes to the jean rise. The goal is to project more, not less. A pair of low rise denim will only reduce the size of your rear. Instead, opt for a pair with a medium rise. Color me right – Since dark colors minimize, dark denim and indigo will create a slimming effect. You do not want this kind of effect on your barely there behind! Try to find light colored or medium blue denim. Grey is very flattering and will also work. Like a great bra, butt enhancing jeans can also lift and www.coachfactoryoutletusa.com/ Coach Factory Outlet separate what little you have. So it wasn’t in your genes to have a nice, round bottom. Big deal. Be happy with what you’ve got and just improvise!
