The rpmfusion nvidia howto says it may take 5 minutes to build. That's a long time to wait with no obvious progress during a reboot.
Many years ago I had to put up with that (different hardware now). But, I didn't hide the textual boot progress messages, so I could see what I was waiting for. I don't recall if I got progress info as it compiled, or I could just see that the stall was due to a compile being started.
Also, back then, we didn't have parallel boot processes, so the system did wait for it to finish before carrying on.
