bongfury Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Afternoon all, Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing a loooong boot time with iAtkos 1.0i (Vanilla + EFI), it has been this way in my case from the very first boot after installation, I'd really like to know what sort of times others are experiencing WITH IATKOS only please (a rough idea of your spec might be a useful gauge too) in my case It's approximately 90 seconds or so to GUI, from the moment the grey apple appears.. XP on the same PC is prolly around 25 secs.. decent spec too.. Q6600, Abit IP-35 Dark Raider (IDE Mode), 4gb x Corsair XMS2 Dominator, 2 x Western Digital AAKS Drives. Leopard is very fast once the GUI is up and running, disk transfer speeds in the OS aren't too bad either in comparison to other folks X-Bench results... nothing strange I can identify in logs or verbose (-v) boot I tried lots of BIOS combo's with drive parameters, disabling all unused devices/ports, killing caches, zapping PRAM and so forth, nothing much made a difference.. maybe someone can suggest a route to tackle this also Appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret-Simpson Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 T4210 - T2400 1.83 32bit 1GB 533 memory. ~10 seconds from Darwin Bootloader to login window. First boot of install took about a minute, and I had to use a little system cracking to give my account admin options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Xeon Quad Man Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yeah, my boot times are bad too, and my specs are pretty decent. My performance in OS X is great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
