I didn't notice any errors, and system doesn't boot faster or slower than usual. Don't know is it good or bad news, though⦠But you should know that I don't have any DMs installed â I prefer simple login in terminal and then run startx (if needed). Also I don't have any heavy services installed â it's netbook and I want it to be as fast as possible.
