[newbie] upgrade 192 to 384 MB RAM = 45 minutes to boot

[DUSTY SOMERS]

Hi!

I upgraded my RAM from 192 to 384.  Now it takes 45 minutes to boot with 
linux mandrake 8.1.  In the beginning it's not slow (but slower than 
before).  It becomes really slow, when he's starting my firewall.  There's 
nothing wrong with the RAM itself, because other OS like windows 2000 don't 
have any probs.
Specifications :
intel celeron 600 MHz
Gigabyte 6WMM7 rev 2.0 (I don't know the exact number sorry)
intel i810 chipset
384 (128+256) MB SDRAM
video integrated on mobo (AGP) with 8 MB shared RAM
sound on board

Thanks for helping me,

Dusty Somers

Bring your MB down to 256 megs and give it a try!
