If your slave drive has failed completely, it's possible that your master drive needs to be jumpered as "single" instead of "master" (if it is one of those drives which make that distinction). Sometimes the BIOS will get hung up for a while trying to find a second drive because the first drive says there should be one.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, switching that jumper did the trick. Now every step - load BIOS, load grub, bootup - completes quickly.
