So DoC _IS_ faster than IDE? If this is the case, why should it be that mounting it with /dev/hda1 as root would make for a faster boot? By my logic, I would think that having /boot and /root on a DoC would make it faster.
It is not faster. But it is faster to load a kernel from linux while the slow IDE spins up. Then once the kernel is in there it can go to IDE.
