FWIW:
Using a 3.16G C2D CPU on the same model Gigabyte motherboards (GA-EP41-UD3L) with 2G RAM from power button on to see the desktop
takes about:
SATA: Kingston SSDNow V-Series 64GB 2.5" SSD ("up to 100MB/sec read, 80MB/sec write") ~ 34 seconds
IDE: Kingston 8GB CF CompactFlash 133X Elite Pro ("25MB/sec. read, 20MB/sec. write") ~ 41 seconds
This is using mythbuntu 9.10 / JYA frontends. Error estimate at a guess allow say +/- 2 seconds.
The CF does pretty well considering its ~25% the price? (Ask me about its longevity in a couple of years...)
