My system at the office is a PPro 200 w/ 128MB RAM, 2.1G HDD, HDD is
divided into 728M /, 1.4G /home, 256M swap.
Boot time is 43s from LILO to text login prompt, 49s from LILO to kdm
login prompt.
Bogomippage is 199.07
I will try this again when I get home and let you know how long that
takes, as my home machine is a K5-200, and so it is closer to your
situation. I also know it takes a while to boot, but I attribute that to
the use of DHCP and the step of mounting about 10 partitions, totalling
15GB.
