[cite] Puttabong:[/cite]Yes, it seems like the problem is related to your AppleNForceATA, the initialization of my disks take a second!
This is what I see when booting up:

Don't know if it will make any difference to you, but do you have any of your controllers turned off?
I found with the older medevil kext I could skip any delay by turning all the controllers on and specifying no device in bios, turn any of the controllers off and had a big delay.

Dude your so full of your self it makes me sick. no intel macs load the Whole os that fast. Im not here to flame on you but i cant help call you out on that stupid lie.

Quote:
[cite] WinLinMac01:[/cite]It takes 7 seconds to load the O/S while the White screen appears before it goes into the actual desktop (14 seconds includes system BIOS appearing at startup). I do believe this is fast, however, as when install multiple applications the boot time can be as high as 40 seconds in some areas. 7 seconds is with default setup. - Cheers! =)

Lol, but its true! Who said that Mac's were even better. Sometimes they're not as fast depending on specifications. =) However, I did state that my boot times varies between 7-14 seconds. Its fast, so don't take it to deep. Lol.
