At first time I have turned off crond service, to try better startup and target the problem, but the time of boot aren't better than previous.
Now I wanna try to disable mounting of floppy drive.
From here my request to mailinglist.
some proposal ?
thanks for your interest. (sorry for the ignorance: I'm a Windoze user during day and Linux for my free time).
From the messages above I see that it created the mount points
/media/cdrom and /media/floppy. I see no evidence that it tried to mount either device. I think your slow boot must be caused by something else.
