The problem is udev. It stalls between 1 to 3 minutes. I have the latest udev hotplug klibc u name it Something happened about 2.6.11.X and I see others writing about similar items The base system is Suse 9.2 and I am beginning to wonder if there is something that Suse wrote that is interferring w/the boot. Since they shipped 9.2 with a 2.6.8-24 and there have been a lot of changes up to 2.6.12.5 In any case the boot stalls just after it prints these two lines input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0 input: PS/2 Generic Mouse on isa0060/serio4 and about 2 mins + - later it prints this EXT2-fs warning (device hda6): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2 and then continue normal boot I sent in an ALT SYSREQ P and T trace a few weeks ago but didnt get an answer. Am I incorrect in assuming that everything up until the root disk is mounted is primarily kernel activity? If not then where else can I look. I can provide any info desired. Just in case this is Suse related I am going to load 9.3 early next week and compile 2.6.12.5 on it and see it I encounter the stall problem. I will post the results from the activity.
