With 9.2 we had issue where it had a strange bug where it would take 15-25 minutes to reboot because EVERYTIME it booted the system it wanted to run reiserfsck against the 1.8T data partition.
Why would it take that long to run reiserfsck? reiserfsck always runs on every boot, because it shouldn't take any time at all, regardless of the size of the partition. It just replays the journal log, unless you're running it manually. For reiserfsck in itself to take that long I would consider a bug
There is indeed a problem, I had the same experience. The solution is simple though. In /etc/sysconfig/boot append 'fastboot="yes"' set 'RUN_PARALLEL="yes"' set 'USE_MAKE="yes"' I'm up and running in under 2 minutes now, with $ ls /etc/init.d/rc5.d/S*|wc -l 32 services starting up.
