The `dracut` utility, used to create the initramfs image used during boot, can now create a uefi bootable executable.  The argument "--uefi" allows dracut to create a single UEFI executable, including an EFI stub, kernel, and initramfs.


To reduce boot time, the setroubleshoot daemon and several small bottlenecks were removed. Regressions in using the readahead service were removed by setting low I/O priorities. Readahead now profiles the system every time the rpm database changes.

When troubleshooting problems with graphical boot, one step is to disable the kernel mode setting feature.
 
Adding <code>nomodeset</code> to the kernel boot prompt in <code>grub</code> disables modesetting.  This can be specified during normal boot by entering the <code>GRUB</code> menu and appending <code>nomodeset</code> to the line that begins <code>kernel /vmlinuz...</code>.  It can be disabled in configuration by adding the <code>nomodeset</code> option to the same line in <code>/etc/grub.conf</code>.
 
If you are having problems with the graphical boot, be sure to file or comment on an existing bug report at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora under the ''plymouth'' component.
