OK And since sshd is starting, it's actually processing stuff from your root file system. You may want to try disabling ssh. Generating the rsa key can take several minutes, depending on how fast your target is. So it may look like the system is hung, but it will actually continue to boot. You may want save away the generated RSA key and include it in your generated image so that this step is faster. For a given filesystem, it only happens the first time, and once the generated key is stored, ssh will just use the previously generated key. But if you're constantly rebuilding your filesystem without any generated keys then the first time you boot the new filesystem you'lll gget a long delay. -- Dave Hylands Shuswap, BC, Canada http://www.davehylands.com _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
