  • the bios take quite long to identify your disk.

    also to read lbr.

    check your hdds if one of them is slave. i guess.

    and the arch is linux.

  • @ArabicLion I have an Samsung 1,5TB USB HDD attached, so the BIOS have to wait it's spin-up, before it can initialize it, so it takes some time :) If I unplug that external HDD, or if it's already not sleeping, it's faster ;)

  • @KernelLinux1979

    i am sorry :)

    it's just happen to me and i make the jumper to enslave one of hdd

    and all went fine after.

    any way i want to ask why when i use gnome as DE

    my eye hurt me after while and when it xfce dos'nt

    and i use the same driver setting on both!

    dos it happen to you or there is a killer solution you can point me to

    cuz i try many! thanx in advance

  • @ArabicLion - Try different font antialiasing settings, and see which one works best for you,

    also try different fonts. 

  • Impressive.

    On my netbook, to boot to a TTY takes ~20 seconds, however, I've just added drive encrpytion which now takes around ~1minute in total; a worth while trade off I think.

    You should try adding VGA=0x315 to the grub (kernel line), it will just make the boot up process a little prettier. =)

  • I have insatlled grub2 later, so there is no more need for vga=xxx parameter for kernel (it's deprecated now), I just use insmod gfx and set gfxpayload=1680x1050 in /etc/boot/grub.cfg, to make it prettier, as you say ;)

  • A very nice; I' ve yet to try GRUB2 yet.

    Not doing this much this afternoon so might give it a go.

  • On SSD drive, it would probably take arround 12-15 sec...

  • 26 sec is good booting time for HDD

    and don't forget to mention what filesystem in the info

    I'm going to try arch

  • Yes, you're right, I forgot to say the filesystem is ext4. I will now recompile 2.6.32 (waiting for it to be final) with my own "stripped" custom .config, and it shoul be somewhat faster. But yes, 26 sec for 7200rpm HDD is expected, I would say.

  • About 26 sec. from GRUB-end to gnome Desktop. (autologin is enabled)
