(^_^)Get rid of beagle and zmd, and 10.2 should be pretty responsive, assuming your
(^_^)hardware is OK (dma not disabled, sufficient RAM, etc)

AMD64 x2 3800+ dual channel RAM 2GB, all SATA drives, a decent pci-e
video card (ati x1300)  Will try and tackle the beagle and zmd thing
later on after I get the bootloader problem resolved. 

Thanks!
