Guest Stumbles Posted October 11, 2002 Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 After a fresh install of 9.0 and running with whatever defaults I have noticed it takes nearly 60 seconds for the command prompt to appear after enterning the userid/passwd. Now if I disable (devfs=nomount) devfs, the command prompt appears with in seconds. No, there are no interrupt conflicts, not running every service know to linux. Just those things needed for samba. Just for grins I off all services and made no difference to login time. I am sure it is something to do with devfs but have no clue what to do about it at this point except to leave it turned off. Has anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitz Posted October 12, 2002 Report Share Posted October 12, 2002 I didn't know devfs was responsible but I do know that it only happens once (the first time you log into any window manager. After that if you log out and in again it is quick again. Glitz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is that prompt that takes way to long when devfs is active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
