Which distro are you using? What hardware?

The way to reduce boot time is to disable services and remove features. The less checking that gets done at boot, the less the boot time. The fastest booting distros are very small (DSLinux at 6 seconds) and/or are compiled specifically for the hardware (Gentoo, Slackware, and, to a lesser extent, Yoper).

For most major distros, a 30sec boot time would be considered "spectacular".
