Is that during file system check? Do you use SATA in legacy mode? Do you use Raid? Which hardware?

I'd guess it's FSCK

ASL usually has it set to run FSCK on every reboot during the beta period.

You might be able to change it with tune2fs or look at the init scripts.

does it take everyone the same time to boot? the disk light is not on during this time and with a fsck i would expect to see that flicker.... I can hook this box up to my web KVM and let someone watch it if they would like to try to see whats up here

Are you using static addressing or DHCP or PPPoE?

I'm seeing similar boot times between 5.202 and 6 beta on the same hardware and setup.

What takes forever on v5 is v4watcher and confd. Confd is a cpu hog anyways and apparently takes a long time to intialize at startup.

ok I have an identical box here at work that I was using on 5.202 ^ does that same slowdown. Im booting it now and go to lunch. when I get back ill get you the hdparm info. also. FYI the Numlock key keeps flashing during this slow boot period starting at the :: Filesystemcheck and continues to flash until just before the login prompt. something changes at this point and stuff runs fast again. is hdparm getting run in some RC script?
