Stephan Aßmus 052984d8de Tweaked the execution time of the Bootscript when running off of read-only
media by inserting delays to prevent concurrent disk access. This is of course
quite non-elegant and the delays are hardcoded and do not depend on the hardware
but todays CD-ROM drives have more likely similar speeds than be very different.
And of course this solution on the other hand does solve quite a serious
problem. Especially the time from where the rocket icon lights up (start of
the Bootscript) to where the blue desktop background shows is dramatically
reduced (over four minutes down to half a minute). The net_server start is
delayed until the user has opted for the Live-CD mode. Running the Installer
is now the default choice. Once a more elegant solution is presented, the
Bootscript should be cleaned up again. This is more so that we have something
until the deadline...
