boot seems to pause after grub
after the option to view the grub menu counts down, and is skipped, the boot process goes to the next screen of "Starting up ..." and just sits there. For a very long time.
(As a side note, I did not have this problem with gutsy, only hardy. When I saw the computer just sit at that screen, I figured that hardy just didnt work, since its an older machine. So, I left it at that screen, went and burned a gutsy disk at a different computer, and by the time I got back, it had booted!)
Eventually, it goes on to the normal boot process, and gets through it, slowly, but orders of magnitude faster than that first screen. Each step takes only a second or 2, rather than like 5 minutes for the first screen.
Any advice/help?
PS - Here is a paste from dmesg
