xPUD linux boots within 5 seconds inside VirtualBox


I ran xPUD which is just a 56 MB linux (with full fledged firefox 3.5.3 and flash plugin) in Sun Virtualbox and netbook.

I allocated 256 MB for xPUD in Virtualbox and xPUD booted within 5 seconds!! though this is a development build

You can watch the video uploaded by me in youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW9PAtZ193Q


Here are the screenshots of the beautiful xPUD running inside Sun Virtualbox

When I ran from netbook (Lenovo Ideapad S10) it took 14 to 16 seconds to boot and after the latest snapshot build wifi works out of the box.


Here is the snapshot build along with broadcom wireless drivers done by penk (Chen, Ping-Hsun) ultra fast developer of xPUD (see comments 2,3,4 and 5)
