Are you, by chance, loading any services that require DNS?  Sendmail is
usually culprit in this regard.

Subject: [expert] deathly slow loading times....

To all,
When i booted my computer from a fresh Mandrake 6.0 install, it took me
about 19 minutes to boot all the way into KDE. These are real times! (11min
to get past "loading loggers", 4 min to wait for "startx" to take effect,
and another 4 minutes for KDE to load the GUI in full. What gives!!

thanks for your help
Jerrud
