Description Song Liu 2011-10-04 22:35:26 UTC 
2 second boot time target
Comment 1 Darren Hart 2011-10-06 10:13:23 UTC 
This is mostly covered by Bug 1642 and Bug 1646. There is some additional work here however to combine the results of those efforts together as well as:

o Document best practices for balancing:
  - high compression for flash space vs. cpu time to uncompress
  - added size in exchange for support of much faster media
  - initrd vs. monolithic kernel

o Provide EFI capable images
  - prototype efilinux and gnu-efi recipes are under test now
  - test and work with mfleming on the Linux kernel efi-stub which allows the Linux kernel to be it's own EFI payload (eliminating the need for a second stage boot loader).

o Continue to work with hardware folks to keep the fast boot is important message alive!

EFI boot is complete.
Poky-tiny is in master.

The original work was done and new bugs would be created for new work.
