Do you have any tips on reducing boot time? I'm working with a Wandboard since our final product is going to be using the i.MX6. So far I've just done the basic stuff like disabling unneeded things in the config for u-boot and the kernel and disabling unneeded services at startup within the filesystem. This can get the boot time down to like 8-9 seconds off a micro SD but I have no idea what kind of crazy shenanigans they're pulling to get results like this.
