When booting with noudev the problem isn't visible? If so try finding out which driver takes so long to initialize. Look at output of lsmod of a system running without the use of noudev and manually load the drivers. Also check out dmesg and the timing information at the beginning of each line. regards, -mika- -- http://grml.org/ # Linux for texttool-users and sysadmins http://wiki.grml.org/ # share your knowledge http://grml.supersized.org/ # the grml development weblog #grml @ irc.freenode.org # meet us on irc
