Ask Slashdot: Faster Reboots? 28

Posted by Cliff on Monday May 24, 1999 @12:07AM from the my-machine-boots-faster-than-yours dept.

RobertPearse submits this question: Here's an article about ILM engineers using a small Linux box to reboot systems quickly. They mention a "TTL data-acquisition card". Housed in a linux box, it allows them to reboot a system very quickly. Anybody know anything about this? My company is a Microsoft shop -- and given the fragility of NT, this sounds like a great idea. (God forbid we need to reboot an NT box ;-)"
