<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Colin Guthrie at 08/11/11 23:48 did gyre and gimble:
&gt;<i> Hi,
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I've just pushed bootchart to the build system.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> If you want to get a nice log of how things work, just install
</I>&gt;<i> bootchart-daemon and then boot with the kernel command line:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> init=/sbin/bootchartd
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> If you normally need init=/bin/systemd, then use instead:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> init=/sbin/bootchartd bootchart_init=/bin/systemd
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Once you've booted, you can analyse the chart info via running
</I>&gt;<i> &quot;bootchart&quot;. This will create a bootchart.png file which we can then use
</I>&gt;<i> to help diagnose problems etc.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> At the moment on my system, waiting for network-up is causing some
</I>&gt;<i> slowdowns for example. I don't need the network to be up to be able to
</I>&gt;<i> login (on my system) and thus I'd rather display gdm sooner rather than
</I>&gt;<i> wait. Useful stuff.
</I>
Incidentally, this will only work for stuff that is done post initrd.
There is also a dracut module to enable bootchart inside the initrd, but
I've not played with that nor know how to enable it (if you even need to
enable it - perhaps it just works - like I say, I've not looked)
