Speed up Debian boot (safely)?

jmite · 08-08-2008, 06:10 PM

I'm running Debian Lenny right now. I was wondering if there is a way to turn off services and speed up my boot time, in such a way that isn't dangerous to my computer. I'm not a total noob but I'm still inexperienced, so I don't want to do anything too dangerous.

I'm also using Splashy, if that affects anything.

Do you run a server?
Do you use network storage?
...bluetooth?
Should network be on all the time?
What type of firewall do you want?
Which display managers do you want?
...ssh?
