Load time is rediculous

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Well, There's no delay setting in my lilo file.  What if I put one in below
the timeout.  It would look something like:
"delay = 10
I'd just go ahead and do it, but I don't want to have to rescue my system if
it coughs on the command.
Thanks,
Erik
