I dunno - about 10-12 seconds of that is BIOS setup. BeOS starts up fast, but a stripped-down linux with tuned init scripts can certainly hold its own. :)
I have BeOS pro 5.0, I think I've seen a 5 second boot for my record.
You have a fast BIOS. :) I've run BeOS on several machines, but never noticed it booting much more quickly than Linux on the same machines. Now I'm gonna have to dig out those old install disks and play with it some more again. Darn you, causing me to waste more of my time... :) --Danny
