[RoLUG] Reboot Linux faster using kexec

[Mauro Seno]

Mi sembra un progetto interessante, qualcuno di voi ha provato
la faccenda?

"Kexec is a patch to the Linux kernel that allows you to boot directly
to a new kernel from the currently running one. In the boot sequence
described above, kexec skips the entire bootloader stage (the first
part) and directly jumps into the kernel that we want to boot to. There
is no hardware reset, no firmware operation, and no bootloader
involved."

Ciao,
	Mauro
