| @m3x:
is it possible to enable UDMA for the HDD when loading the kicklayout-modules to speed boot up a lot?

| Just because of the recent benchmarks...
RAGEMEM v0.37 - compiled 11/06/2010

Copying AKsack.wav to RAM: (via DOS) happens under 2s (counting seconds in my head).
How could I time the copying more accurately?
UPDATE:
uptime
copy...
uptime
-script shows that copying happens below 2s
need more details ... want to beat those PowerMacs ...  Last edited by KimmoK on 08-Feb-2012 at 11:21 AM.

You may try with this tool:
http://www.os4depot.net/share/development/edit/kickedit.lha
Just copy the current kicklayout with the "Clone" button in the Kicklayout box (to have a safe configuration to boot from in case something go wrong) and remove the unused modules.
On a standard Sam440ep without any additional PCI card you can remove the following from the kicklayout:
3dfxVoodoo.chip
it8212ide.device.kmod
lsi53c8xx.device.kmod
sii0680ide.device.kmod
sii3112ide.device.kmod
sii3512ide.device.kmod
siliconmotion502.chip
uhci.usbhcd

copy AKsack.wav ram:
echo $_RunTime
BTW: where I can download that wav file from ?

To enable UDMA in U-Boot, the rewrite of the 3114 driver is needed (it's not a trival change) and I lack the time for this...

| I'm quite sure M3X said he lacked time (not money) for doing UDMA for UBoot.

When there's some money to be made, it would be easier to find time.
(at least it's true for me)
