Just curious what everyones boot times are for their Linux installations??
Ive got a a slackware machine (3GHZ Intel, 2G DDR) that boots up in less than 30 seconds and my SuSE laptop(AMD64, 512M DDR) boots in about 40 seconds i think.

It completely varies for me but boot time isn't much of a concern for me since I rarely have to do it except for on my laptop once a day. I usually plug it in to the docking station when I get to work and turn it on and it's booted by the time I get back from putting my lunch in the fridge. I do have servers that once they actually get to the point of loading the Linux kernel only take about 10 or 15 seconds to boot (no X, very specific few services). However, to get through all the hardware/memory/RAID controller checks it seems like 5 minutes before it gets to load Linux in 10 seconds. I run Linux on my wireless Linksys routers and it only takes about 4 or 5 seconds to boot them. :)
