| gnarface | |cos|: more than a minute and it's still booting? or you're saying it's finished booting by the time this happens? | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| gnarface | cause the thing is, i've got some old hardware here and it doesn't take that long to get that far | 00:12 |
| gnarface | the core 2 duo, once it's past the bios post, it boots in like 5 seconds | 00:14 |
| gnarface | is there a very large amount of hardare? | 00:14 |
| gnarface | *hardware | 00:14 |
| |cos| | gnarface: i'm saying it feels more like a software dead-lock bug than anything hardware related. it would be good to be able to figure out what actually happens though. | 00:43 |
| |cos| | i mean, the kernel isn't hung. it's just udev or whatever that is stuck. | 00:44 |
| |cos| | one can even switch between text mode and some graphical boot screen. i guess the console is technically on a framebuffer so that no actual mode switching happens, but still. logic bug, not hardware failure is very much what it smells like. | 00:46 |
| gnarface | |cos|: sure, maybe could be a driver problem or something, just would be very unusual. have you considered trying to hotplug all the usb devices when it is waiting like that? if it's a driver issue that still might help you figure out which device | 02:04 |
| gnarface | i'm sure i probably suggested that before but i don't remember hearing if you actually tried it | 02:13 |
| |cos| | gnarface: no external devices connected. merely the power cord. guess i could try detaching that one too next time. | 08:54 |
| gnarface | |cos|: no, the power cord probably isn't it :-p | 13:47 |
