Takes about 1 minute to get passed the apple loading screen then takes about 3-4 mins for the hard-drive to be fully read. I've put up for this for months, but now I'm trying to learn if I'm hurting anything or if this is normal.
In the video I show you that I use Easy-BCD to make dual-boot modes. I have Windows 7 on one harddrive and Hackintosh Snow Leopard on the other. Then I show you that it loads up to the apple screen and takes a bout a minute to load then about 3-4 mins for it to fully load the hard-drive. I can browse the mac while things load up but if I do I will get an apple blue loading circle thing that is basically telling me my harddrive is still being read, or atleast that is what I'm assuming the blue circle loading screen is doing.
Also, as you see in my video it takes awhile for the hard-drive to load/read stuff. Now, is that because I'm on Hackintosh Snow Leopard or is that because the hard-drive is slow or did I install Hackintosh wrong for some reason? Thanks

@todestoTry booting with -v and see where it is stalling. It sounds like it is having a issue reading/loading some kexts for whatever the hardware you have… It eventually loads so I would recommend doing that first.
How do I boot with -v? Will it mess something up if I boot with -v?
