Hi, need more information about your boot process.
dmesg
to print the ring buffer of your kernel
and then
cat /var/log/boot.log
to see what services load right and which services maybe fail or have a failed configuration. mostly pppoe or modem connections on startup needs more than 10 seconds to dial in, depends on your ISP and your connection type.
dmesg > ~/loongboot.txt && cat /var/log/boot.log >> ~/loongboot.txt
P.S. if i make a mistake here so its my first post here now. :D Am Mittwoch, den 13.01.2010, 18:54 +0200 schrieb Dj YB:
Hello,
usually I don't care about long boot time since I don't reboot but recently for reasons I must open a different thread for I have to reboot.
now, after the nice splash with the animation thing running (about 30-40 seconds) there is a blank screen (another ~30-50 seconds) and than the services messages arrive first the network: "setting hostname..."
maybe this is not really long time I don't know you tell me but if it is how can I find out what's causing that?
thanks in advance. YB.
