I think using LinuxBIOS is the best choice. Using LinuxBIOS and Linux
with graphical aplications (kdrive and matchbox) built in inside BIOS
Flash I got < 10s startup (with no optimizations). You just need get a
supported board
(http://www.linuxbios.org/index.php/Supported_Motherboards) and make a
try.
