Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub
Whenever I boot my computer, I get a black screen with blinking cursor
for a good 15-20 seconds, with the hdd light on for all this time,
before grub shows the boot menu.
I have intrepid ibex installed on a sata hard drive in ide (i.e. not
ahci) mode. (I cannot change it to ahci without breaking both my windows
xp install on the same drive and preventing the Asus ExpressGate from
working.) Intrepid is installed on the third partition, which registers
as sda6 and is formatted with ext2.
I have an Asus p5q pro motherboard, and the sata drive is plugged to the
marvell sata controller.
The only other sata device I have is a DVD burner.
