no animals will be hurt during testing

How to test?

1) update your machine to latest rawhide
   tip1: try F11 Alpha + updates if rawhide doesn't install
   tip2: install F10 + rawhide updates if F11 Alpha doesn't install on your machine
   tip3: yum-skipbroken may come in handy in case there are broken deps `yum --skipbroken update'

2) install bootchart
   `yum install bootchart'

3) Make sure the kernel you're about to boot has init set to bootchart.
   Open /boot/grub/menu.lst and check there's init=/sbin/bootchartd on the kernel command line

4) Reboot

5) Upload your hardware profile.
   Either via smoltSendProfile' in the terminal or smoltGui' for GUI. Don't forget to save a link to your profile 
   on the web. Also, your profile unique ID is saved in /etc/sysconfig/hw-uuid. Check the file contains your UUID.

6) Run `bootchart' on the command line.
   This should create bootchart.png image. Create unique name for the file, mathing your UUID. 
   cd /tmp && bootchart && mv bootchart.png bootchart-`head -n1 /etc/sysconfig/hw-uuid`-myservices.png

7) Upload your bootchart along with your link to your profile.
