Long Boot Times after Remaster

(1/5) > >>

newtotinycore:
TC 4.7.4 on old pentium 4

After using ezremaster and  tc-install to usb, new tc install works just like original.
However, at boot-up, after reaching the "Syslinux 4.0.5 EDD..." copy-rite page, there is an additional 5 minute pause before booting (compared to original tc system).
This has occurred twice.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bob

Hi newtotinycore
You might want to at least post your  syslinux.cfg (or is it extlinux.cfg) file.
Sounds like you set the timeout to 300 seconds.

newtotinycore:
Hi Rich,
Here is my extlinux.conf file:

DEFAULT core
LABEL core
KERNEL /tce/boot/vmlinuz
APPEND initrd=/tce/boot/core.gz quiet  waitusb=5:UUID="b6660f18-311a-42cd-a016-f233b04a8a53" tce=UUID="b6660f18-311a-42cd-a016-f233b04a8a53"

I guess that "waitusb=5" means a 5 second wait?
My remastered tc has a very close to 5 minute delay compared to the original tc.
I haven't made any changes in the default values, anywhere.
Maybe, there is some default value being imported by ezremaster?

Thanks,
Bob

That's correct.
I don't see anything wrong in the config file. What changes did you make that required a remaster?

newtotinycore:
Hi Rich,
The remaster is a very basic system to see how things work out.
Started with TinyCore 4.7.4, added a browser, epdfview, viewnior, acpi, iptables, tc-install, and ezremaster.
No changes to configuration files (except adding /usr/local/sbin/basic-firewall to bootlocal.sh.)

Maybe something involving default settings in 4.7.4?
Computer only has 2 gigs of ram, but tc runs fine after boot.
Thanks,
Bob
