For me it was around 5-7 minutes.

I have the following setup:

# fdisk -l /dev/sde
...
/dev/sde1               1        9363      262160+   b  W95 FAT32
/dev/sde2            9364       17792      236012   83  Linux

on my 512mb uSD card which came with FR.

The partitions were formatted with simple

# mkfs.vfat /dev/sde1
# mkfs.ext2 /dev/sde2
# sync

(yes, I know it must be ext3 instead, but somehow it is ext2 and beta7
boots OK with it -- will try with ext3 later)

Yep, see kernel-debug.img earlier on this thread.  It outputs some
messages on framebuffer console, so odds are you will catch something
relevant to your problem.
