Did IMX6 MCU have fast boot solution for linux or Android, no just delete some module from the kernel ,but maybe depend on IMX6's hardware acceleration solution,that can start linux system within 2 seconds ?

Remove the uboot bootloader and use whoosh simple booter for imx6:

For the kernel remove any option that is not used in your application, the smaller the better. Also when dealing with the RFS not all the systems have the same mount time.
