Hello I am using Mandrake 9.0 and have been having the same problem with a slow boot for awhile on my desktop system. My laptop works perfectly and boots much quicker. Both duel boot to Windows XP which I seldom use anymore except for CAD/GIS work.
Today, I noticed the following error message while booting: modprobe: modprobe: can't locate fb0 unmounting initrd: Any suggestions to fix this? Many thanks in advance. This list is really great and I have learned a lot. Jim Snyder
