There have been some new kernel changes to make this go faster, perhaps you need to integrate them. Also realize that loading 52 modules will take a lot of time, just due to all of the in-kernel lookups that are necessary to accomplish this. Perhaps you might wish to cut down on this large number, if you have everything as modules, you loose some of the new kernel speedups that have happened with async probing of devices which can not happen if the drivers are in modules. Look at the recent moblin releases for examples of how to speed this up. good luck, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hotplug" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
