I have this odd behaviour from both my 5.2 and my 5.3 installations. GENERIC or my own.
When booting the console displays the usual messages like below:
1> Starting local daemons:. 2> Updating motd. 3> Configuring syscons: keymap blanktime. 4> Initial i386 initialization:. 5> Additional ABI support: linux. 6> Starting cron.
What is strange is that after line 3 the computer suddenly stops for a long time, almost a minute, doing (as far as I know) nothing!
Then the following lines 4,5,6 flow forth and the systems boot like it should.
I have examined the Handbook, and I have checked the scripts that produce this output and I don't understand what's happening. I also tried to run the process step-by-step by hand from single-user mode and it never showed that odd "sleep" period.
Anyone have a clue?
