It's always better to boot than to resume from sleep

Mine takes about a minute. Used to be about 15-20 seconds but after I installed my graphics card it seems to go to a blank screen for 45 seconds and then pops up with the desktop. Not going to argue with it and I'll leave it alone as long as the computer works.

I changed my mobo(Gigabyte GA-MA770-DS3) mainly because of problems with the USBs. That problem stayed, and also my boot time was the same. However, I did a new test install on another volume with the same distro from Lawless, and this new install boots in about 20 seconds!!! Waiting to see what the solution from Lawless is, cause I don't want to do new primary installation.

AMD Phenom II 945 || Gigabyte GA-MA770-DS3 || A-DATA 4GB kit DDR2 800 || Galaxy 9800GT Low Power || 320GB (SATA) || USB DAC || Optiarc DVDRW (PATA) || CM Mystique 631S Case || Asus PW201 || Apple Aluminum Keyboard + Mighty Mouse + Remote

My boot time varies drastically. Sometimes, it only about 15 seconds, and things start right on up. Other times it stops at InterfaceNamer: timed out waiting for IOKIT to quiesce and it takes around 5 minutes. I'm running Leo4All v2 updated to 10.5.5

My Acer Aspire 5104Wlmi, boots up in 1 minute and 10 seconds.
It has an AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-56 processor, and is running iAtkos v4a updated to 10.5.5 by using Zephyroths AMD Software Update.

I have tried removing a lot of kexts(including all the ATA kexts, firewire & sata kexts), and just use the AppleATIATA kext found earlier in this thread, but still donīt see no real difference in boot-time.
I always get the "IOKitWaitQuiet() timed out waiting to write kernel symbols error", no matter what...
I have almost no BIOS options om my machine.
