Mine takes total 5-6 hours on i5. Next time everything will be very fast as you fetch, build or install only the daily patches. Last but not least, check you clock. If it runs out of the battery, replace it. Cheers, -- Gua Chung Lim "UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity." -- Dennis M. Ritchie
