I set the timeout value to 5. After that, Ubuntu boots faster but I have still a delay for 20 seconds. It is better than one and a half minute but still annoying if sitting in the train and waiting for linux to come up. Maybe I will try it with the use of different runlevels (to disable network at startup).
Thanks for the workaround. -- Ubuntu 8.10 booting hangs for a while on "configuring network interfaces" on iwl3945 and iwl4965 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
