Greetings testers,
This week's Test Day will focus on another upcoming Fedora 11 feature: 20 Second Startup [1]. This is a follow-on to a Fedora 10 effort to reduce boot delay [2].
Harald Hoyer, David Kovalsky and Ondrej Hudlicky have created a test procedure and looking to gather and analyze bootchart data. Come prepared with your favorite old-skool hardware setup.
Join #fedora-qa this Thursday, February 19, 2009 to help collect and analyze boot speed data. Follow the action at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/2009-02-19.
Thanks, James

Sorry for the double quote - somehow I didn't get the initial mail.
I have just substantially revised the wiki space for this event:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/2009-02-19
I converted all the 'how to test' bits into a set of proper test cases, expanded some stuff, replaced some duplicate instructions with links to the appropriate pages, and generally (I hope) made the process a lot clearer. It should be quite easy now to follow the cases and generate data for your system. I've filled in a full set of data from my main system (and comparison data from Mandriva), so you can follow that as a template for filling in the results charts.
Thanks guys! The more data we have the better it is for Harald ;)
