[opensuse-factory] 12.1 rc1 Slow booting
Well thought i would have a look at 12.1 rc1 as it is getting close to release time and no one seems to be bothered with the problems i have with 11.3 . Booting is very slow the 11.3 system i at leats twice as quick, Sound system sometimes yes sometimes no . This on an Compaq Presario v5030 laptop AMD turion 64 1.5Gb Ram ATI graphics (shared memory ) tested on a Tosiba 40Gb drive that i use as a test install drive . The same hardware on 11.3 (all 64 bit systems and software) is as i said twice the speed . Ideas of where to look for info as i cn not sit and watch the boot process by hitting the Esc key as it keeps going back to the graphics screen Pete . -- Powered by openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64) Kernel: 2.6.34.10-0.2-desktop KDE Development Platform: 4.6.5 (4.6.5) "release 7" 08:04 up 1 day 11:28, 4 users, load average: 0.05, 0.03, 0.00 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

This might be caused by a loop dependency of systemd. a) The fast check is to switch back to sysvinit and see if it happens there too. b) On the long run you have to check if this is a duplicate of 661401 Add systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_debug=kmsg as additional kernel cmd line boot args and file a bug report including this information. If the a) test = sysvinit worked while you see this with systemd please directly assign the bug to Frederic.

Lars Ok it will be tomorrow before i get chance to try it is the " test = sysvinit" a kernel cmd line option at boot time please

Hi Pete, It's "init=sysvinit" on the kernel command line or you can put it in menu.lst e.g:- kernel /3.1.0_3-smp+ root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD20EARS-07MVWB0_WD-WCAZA4270277-part2 resume=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD20EARS-07MVWB0_WD-WCAZA4270277-part3 splash=silent quiet init=/sbin/sysvinit nomodeset showopts elevator=cfq vga=0x31a initrd /initrd3.1.0_3-smp+ Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

No, it's init=/sbin/sysvinit (your example was correct, though), not just init=sysvinit. -- Frederic Crozat <fcrozat@suse.com> SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Lars Right had chance to try the "init=sbin/sysvinit and yes it improves the situation back to (almost) the same as the 11.3 install but that may be slight difference in drives it seems as thou it is stalling on mounting / i will try to note it down and post it ..

There's a systemd-analyze command intended for this situations. Read the Lennart's post about it - at least you can have something you can put into the bugzilla http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/blame-game.html Regards Michal Vyskocil
