Hi Mart,
You can try to catch it with a CTRL-S while booting. This will
'suspend' any further processing of the boot process until you press
CTRL-Q to let it continue. It gives you a chance to read and examine
the boot messages at your leisure, but it can be hard to catch it
when it's on the last one or two boot processes though.
Cheers,
Jimmy Richards
