I updated to kernel 2.6.20-16.29 and now it boots in a normal timeframe without having to add the irqpoll option.
However, the led on the tower that indicates disk accesses flashes steadily. Could it be related to the cdrom issue? Indeed, though the cdrom icon does not appear anymore on the desktop, the 2 cd-drives are listed next to the hdd volumes in the sidepane of the nautilus window. -- very long boot - hdd missing - irqpoll helps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
