Hi all, I have loaded the winXp SP2 and RHEL WS 4.0 dual booting using grub, problem is booting to linux takes 15-20 minutes. Booting to WinXP and coming out of linux is fast. motherboard is 915 GAV. I would like to know whether this is normal for RHEL WS 4.0 booting or there is some problem. If so kindly help me out. Cheers, Amit Das.
Is your RHEL trying to configure some device like....say....eth0? If you set it to dhcp and there is nothing connected, it may wait to find a dhcp server or you got a lan active and its not setup for linux???? Turn sendmail service off too. It is not needed. Find out the exact device/program where it takes time to load during bootup. If its not needed, get it off.

Rony.
