Hi,
I have noticed recently when my DSL router is on and connected and i
power on my machine, it's gets to the part (after i hit enter on my
kernel of choice) where a message appears "loading please wait........"
and this goes on for a few minutes.
However if my router is powered down Debian Squeeze 6.05 amd64 boots in
a few seconds.
Is your DSL router connected to the PC via ethernet, via USB, or is this
I am connected to the DSL via a modem/router which is connected to a
router only (no dial up function for DSL except USB 3G and has wifi
capabilities) , basically I use Ethernet mostly.
a wireless router.
Does the PC get its IP address from the router via DHCP? If so, it may
simply be that the router is slow in responding to the DHCP request.
I don't use DHCP as it messes with my NFS
If
it's wireless, it could be that logon to the router is slow for some reason.
You specifically mentioned 6.05. Did this slow boot exist with previous
Debian versions?
Can't remember, I will try and boot up with 3g connected one day and see
what happens.
Do you have any other computers using this router? Do
they boot slowly as well?
No they boot fast
Are they Linux, MS Windows, Mac, or other?
I am not familiar with the terms MS Windows, Mac, I will look them up on
Google :-)
Actually come to think of it i have Ubuntu 12.04.1 on another hard drive
and in the same machine it boots up super quick.
I will attempt what Hugo said in the near future.
