[spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ uname -a Linux archlinux 3.5.5-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 2 22:30:55 CEST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux I get two waiting periods at startup, one short waiting period regarding to ATA not ready and a relatively long waiting period for raw EDIT. Apart from that everything started as usual. Regards, Ralf
