Package: hal
Version: 0.5.11-8
Severity: normal

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1


I have a SATA cd writer, and if there isn't a CD in the drive at startup, hal 
takes more then 5 seconds to let the boot process go on.
With bootchart I see most of the time is taken by hald-probe-storage.
These are the relevant lines from hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes

I couldn't find a way to tell hal not to check for the media (I tried putting 
/usr/share/doc/hal/examples/no-cd-media-check.fdi in /etc/hal/fdi/policy, but 
nothing changed)
Cheers,

Luca
