Question about which tools to use, bugs, the best way to implement a function, etc should go here. Don't forget to see if your question is answered in the wiki first! When in doubt post here.
I have some questions about the boot device...(We want to develop storage device and use it as the "boot device"...) Maybe you can give me some comments....
1. Is there any document or spec defining the max boot latency ? Here the latency is calculated from Power button is pressed to Windows Logo appearance
2. if we complete our own storage device and want to use it as boot device, then how do we know if it is "qualified" regarding the speed ? Here the speed indicates the device's response to host's requests...
3. The same question is applied to the system hibernation(S4)...Does anyone(Ex. Microsoft) define this max resume latency ?
1. Is there any document or spec defining the max boot latency ? Here the latency is calculated from Power button is pressed to Windows Logo appearance
The only thing I can think of that might have some sort of requirement is Microsoft's Logo requirements. Of course I don't know what these requirements are or if they do (or don't) include a "minimum boot time" requirement; and in any case they can't apply to an OS you're writing or apply to hardware that didn't jump through hoops to win a shiny sticker.

For all things; perfection is, and will always remain, impossible to achieve in practice. However; by striving for perfection we create things that are as perfect as practically possible. Let the pursuit of perfection be our guide.
