I checked the video. It looks great. Good work. But, your way limits functionality. You can use only Tiny/X and busybox and... If you use Firefox, using CD-ROM is necessary, right?
CDROM is one possibility, a disk or USB thumb drive is possible too.
So, combining your way and my way would be a right choice.
And, the problem is not only BIOS, but a firm ware of CD-ROM also. In some drives, to recognize a medium and start reading requies more than 10 sec. I mean, to start reading uses more time than booting Linux itself. To solve this, probably so-called "LinuxFirmware" would be necessary...
Yeah, but CDROMs are too slow per definition. If you want the greatest boot speed you need something faster, dunno, maybe a fast USB thumb drive or CompactFlash card or so.
