Slow booting system...

[Jared Greenwald]

I just recently attempted to switch my network from a Linksys router to an
Ubuntu system.  I previously had a Gentoo system there as my router, but
acer a while it got a bit tedious to compile stuff on a Pentium 2.  In any
case, my current router system is a 500mhz Athlon K6-2 that is no speed
demon either.  My question is...  during boot it seems to be taking forever
to get up to a login prompt.  On the order of 5 minutes or more.  All the
while the screen is just blank.  I've tried switching between ttys, but
nothing seems to work. Is there anything I can do to make the boot process
more verse??

Thanks.
