Description of problem: Booting RHEL5 takes more time then necessary because nash's stabilized function has a bug. The fix is available from #193206 in rawhide, but it would be a small effort to port this back to RHEL 5.4. The difference between booting without the current stabilized function makes a huge difference (more than 15 seconds) so if this is fixed it makes a big difference resuming from hibernate. And it may look nice on the feature list too :-) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 5.3 and earlier mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-44 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. echo stabilized / | time strace nash 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Bug 193206 ?
Can someone from Red Hat please investigate ? I am sure we now missed the opportunity for RHEL 5.4... :-/
This was never even proposed for 5.4, would be 5.5 at absolute best given the gazillion conflicting and higher priorities, and that's if a miracle happens. If this is a big issue for you, please escalate it through your support channel.
Will this bug be fixed for 5.5?
