fuzzywasaduck2 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yeah - it's taking a full 30secs to shut down my retail method install Is this normal? It also takes about 45 secs to boot once I'm on the grey screen with the spinney thing Is that normal too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacUser2525 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 42 people have read this post so far.... so let me ask the question another way.... 1. Approx, How long does your boot take??? 2. Approx, How long does shut down take??? Takes both my machines under 20 seconds to boot about 10 seconds if that to shutdown. To get a better response to your question(s) you may want to consider putting in details like how you installed/what distro was used, what steps you have taken to try and solve the problem, full list of all hardware in the machine/OS's running on it, how the drives are partitioned ... Things like this allows people to get a better idea of what is going on we are not mind readers after all, looking at the limited specs you have I will go with the ide drives taking the extra time. One thing you can try is at boot hitting the F8 key to get to the Darwin boot loader then using the hit any key option to get too the command line where you can type in then hit the ENTER key -v to get a text boot where you can see what is being loaded and how much time they are taking loading.

TheBogieMan Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Are you running VMware as well ?, that can add a bit extra to start and shutdown times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
