[Libguestfs] [PATCH] Change to using ext2-based, cached supermin appliance.

[Richard W.M. Jones]

I can report the good news that on Fedora 13 (ie. non-broken kernel)
this patch and the updated febootstrap reduces the boot time below the
magic number:

  real	  0m4.954s
  user	  0m2.117s
  sys	  0m1.739s

(Unfortunately the times are not as good with the broken kernel
2.6.35, because even with the much smaller -kernel and -initrd
qemu-kvm takes many seconds to start up).

Rich.
