Hi,

First of all, sorry for not getting the threading right, I just
subscribed to this ML and don't know how to make GMail DTRT.

Presumably, pacman won't be needed immediately on boot, so to appear a
bit more "snappy" i guess it would make sense to do the pacman-init in
the background.

This would obviously only work if there is some lock in place to make
pacman wait on pacman-init to finish in a graceful way. Is this the
case?

Cheers,

Tom
