Thanks Andy.
Acturally, I've tested the same images(compressed or uncompressed, NTFS or
FAT) on DOM and CF, which shows that the boot speed on CF is 4 or 5 times
faster than on DOM. So I guess the bottleneck is on my my DOM(PQI's
industrial 512MB)'s bad performance. Does anybody using DOM manage to boot
within 1 minute? Or recommend some other brand?
