Right, I have been looking at the kernel.log, after paying closer attention at the startup videos. Now, once the boot up process has began, it goes pretty fast. There is only one point where it actually stops--for about 12 seconds:
May 4 18:13:05 GANDALF-PC kernel: [ 8.222239] sd 10:0:0:3: [sdi] Attached SCSI removable disk May 4 18:13:05 GANDALF-PC kernel: [ 19.611320] udev: starting version 151 May 4 18:13:05 GANDALF-PC kernel: [ 19.658288] ACPI: resource nForce2_smbus [0x1c00-0x1c3f] conflicts with ACPI region SM00 [0x1c00-0x1c05] May 4 18:13:05 GANDALF-PC kernel: [ 19.658290] ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use it instead of the native driver May 4 18:13:05 GANDALF-PC kernel: [ 19.658292] nForce2_smbus 0000:00:0a.1: Error probing SMB1. May 4 18:13:05 GANDALF-PC kernel: [ 19.658457] i2c i2c-0: nForce2 SMBus adapter at 0x1c80 Following that, we immediately have these error messages. Not sure if the one has to do with the other, but it would be useful to know why there is no activity for about 12 secs (see kern.log attached above). -- Ubuntu boot delay - nForce error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575296 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
