GRUB setup for FULL HDD for fastest boot
Hello mates! I'm setting up Puppy Linux to install on an old laptop using full install for the very first time and I had a question. What are the settings to make Puppy boot as fast as it can in GRUB? I set the timeout to 0 in the menu.lst. Is there anything else I can do? When I boot, I get a quick glimpse of that blue menu if the timeout was not 0. Is there a way to get rid of seeing that completely? Here is what my menu.lst looks like:
Puppy 4.3.1 + Sansa Express MP3 Player + 10GB USB Flash Drive = My triple threat OS. :wink:

I think you've probably done all you can BUT ... not trying to be funny here ... have you tried the GRUB manual? Use Link below:exProphecy wrote:Oh is my menu.lst the fastest it can be or does no one know what it should be..?
