Bug Description

Edgy readahead-list rocks! The foregrounding and per-bootup block ordering make a dramatic difference with bootup speed.

Now, why not give Dapper the same love? I've tested it on two Dapper i386, a dapper vmware, and a Dapper amd64 box, and all three work just fine with a backported readahead-list.

Only one caveat: boot.list needs to be replaced with the one Dapper shipped with, because preloading Edgy files on Dapper is pretty nonsensical :)
