Looks pretty good. I have a dumb question though, for which I haven't found an answer - how can I enable/disable readahead? I haven't checked in Rawhide yet, but in F10 it is not among services.
It's explained in the test cases, I think? I'm pretty sure I remember writing it there.
You edit /etc/sysconfig/readahead , the first line is the key. The advice to enable / disable it as a service, in the old version of the test day page, was presumably outdated.
don't forget to: # touch /.readahead_collect
after you active readahead to trigger the data collection. Reboot for the data collector and reboot again after a full boot.
...well, that was completely obvious!
so my results which I did with two reboots but *not* with /.readahead_collect would be invalid?
Well, yes, if you didn't reboot after installing readahead without turning it off.
I added the command to the wiki pages, yesterday.
