My 2 €c: I upgraded from dapper to Edgy, and the boot time was around
2 minutes. I reinstalled, and now boot time is back to 45 seconds or
so in my setup (from grub to gdm, that is). I've been on since Beta 2,
then RC, then now, dist-upgrading all the while (right now
update-manager doesn't seem to work, but console does). Oh, and you
might want to check this up:
