Actually it was on the order of half a minute or so on my old K6-2 500 notebook, that was more than just noticeable. I didn't time it precisely but I was starting to wonder if the boot had just hung.

It would really be nice to speed this up. /Per -- Per Bjornsson <perbj@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Ph.D. Candidate, Department of Applied Physics, Stanford University
