My eeePC has something called Boot Booster. I leave a 16mb EFI partition (type code 'ef') as the first partition on my first drive, and the BIOS somehow uses that to skip POST and jump right into the boot loader.
Your boards MIGHT have something like that, see if adding such a partition (remember has to be partition 1...) does any good.
That said, this makes getting into the BIOS or boot menu a PITA button mashing fest to try and squeeze the keypress in at just the right moment.
Well, testing 4.1 in OpenSUSE... the bar is the same (or smaller) than KDE3.5 was, and the desktop is easy to restore to a "normal" desktop instead of a widget dock.
Robots.txt is the equivalent of a burn-order in your Last Will and Testament. If the author chooses to have their work left outside of the archive(s), it's entirely the author's fault if it dissapears.
Except that the data still has to go through the southbridge, that will be your new bottleneck. RAM is through the northbridge, which is loads faster... but is also directly tied with the CPU(s).
For games, there are dedicated devices that are cheaper and better.
Says the one that hasn't seen a new game on new hardware connected to a very large TV screen... I'm not arguing about cheaper, but don't try to tell me a console is better.

That new Intel chip isn't actually made by Intel, and because of it linux support is really bad right now.
Beware - don't expect it to be perfect.
I have an EEE 1000. Mine must be on the first.
So, I guess that means it's entirely arbitrary.
Note that 16m is the smallest chunk I can partition on my SSD - exactly one block - I only "need" an 8m partition however.

This concept seems to be hit or miss for people. Either you get it, or you struggle with it.
I think it's a brain wiring trait.
That's the fault of the company for not training the kid.
Yaarrrr, there be ways, matey.

Try it out and play around. It won't bite.
When the user has a locked system he doesn't care!
I do care! I care because I want to look for a solution, not throw my hands up in despair like some other users do.
How else do you think things get fixed? People like me notice and write it up. It gets fixed.
How long have you been running 4.2? Have you submitted any bug reports or contributed in testing? No? Then you have no right to bitch about it.
I didn't say how it would come along. Someone will end up doing it and we will survive, or nobody will and there won't be anyone around to care.
Survival is too deeply rooted in our brains. Out of the millions of us, someone with the ability to solve it will eventually do so.
I'm not in a position to solve it. I won't be for a very long time, if ever. Bitching about it (here, at least) doesn't help.
There's always the option of not reproducing... there are plenty of ways to be intimate that don't end up with semen deposition.
The only usage I can think of is for testing - making sure your page renders correctly.
Good question! Why the hell would someone want to bring a child into that? I certainly wouldn't...
The solution is obviously to build the reactors in the media's backyards. Can we figure out a way to get the lawyers in there too?
Something better will come along, just like something better than horses came along.
Out with the old, in with the new. It's what we humans do.

Right, but please tell me where at microsoft.com I can download my Linux version of Internet Explorer?
Oh right, you can't.
If IE mattered for the demographic that will be using this service, then supporting it would be a priority. However it's not, so it's not a priority.
Grow up.
Don't you risk silent corruption/loss when you do that?
boot really fast by using ram disk. ... which was conveniently erased when you rebooted. Sounds useful.
What use is it to boot from a ramdisk like that? The CPU cannot execute zeroes.
Except that the data still has to go through the southbridge, that will be your new bottleneck. RAM is through the northbridge, which is loads faster... but is also directly tied with the CPU(s).
This isn't RAM in the classical sense. It's a storage device that uses RAM instead of a magnetic platter.
As long as your motherboard supports SATA, then it supports this.
And now, my little tune. Sung to the familiar tune in the Wizard of Oz:
Ding, Dong, the Bush is gone;
Which old Bush? The stupid one.
Ding, Dong, the clueless Bush is gone!
Yes, trollish. But I'm allowed to have some joy now and again, right?
