The boot hangs between the lines Waiting for /dev to be fully populated... done. (line 5 in your screenshot when " * Merging..." is counted as 1) and Cleaning up ifupdown... done. (line 6) The "done." in line 5 appers quickly, it's really *after* *finishing* this line. The CD drive is accessed several times during the waiting period. > > JFYI: If you use lang=de you don't need keyboard=de anymore. :) Aaaahhh :-) so always typing kezboard is unnecessary :-)
> > regards, > -mika- The problem only occurs on this special laptop. I had grml up and running on my vmware in about 1 minute (given 256 MB RAM). Since I put the laptop into a server room yesterday I can't test now - it takes quarter an hour to walk over and back, and 1 hour to boot from CD :-( Booting from harddisk is as fast as can be on this machine (Celeron Mendocino 366, 64 MB RAM). So it may be a problem of modprobing - although I manually inserted a lot of lines into /etc/modules now... Cheers, Werner - -- Werner Flamme, Abt.
