vol_id is taking too much disk I/O
delete vol_id from your udev rules and don't use uuid in your fstab

slow down, you forgot that I am a newbie

is there any tutorial ?

edit1:
i tried to delete but it's write protected.
i also tried to delete it via terminal but it said
rm: cannot remove `vol_id': Permission denied

edit2:
i deleted it with
sudo rm vol_id
i'm going to restart now. wish me luck. i hope rebooting will be done :crossfingered:

please post the output of 'mount' (without the quotes) and the content of the file '/etc/fstab' and I'll tell you how to edit /etc/fstab

If you did that but didn't edit your fstab, then your system won't boot.

i dunno what have i done but it works :D

mount:
Code:

/dev/sda6 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro)
tmpfs on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
/proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
varrun on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)
varlock on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,mode=1777)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620)
fusectl on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw)
lrm on /lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/volatile type tmpfs (rw,mode=755)
securityfs on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw)
binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
gvfs-fuse-daemon on /home/martina/.gvfs type fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon (rw,nosuid,nodev,user=martina)
/dev/scd0 on /media/cdrom0 type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,utf8,user=martina)

etc/fstab:
Code:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>  <type>  <options>      <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc          proc    defaults        0      0
# /dev/sda6
UUID=ef6a1d3d-dc1a-4773-9f97-33108ad129c8 /              ext3    relatime,errors=remount-ro 0      1
# /dev/sda7

Your new fstab should be:
Code:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>  <type>  <options>      <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc          proc    defaults        0      0
# /dev/sda6
/dev/sda6 /              ext3    relatime,errors=remount-ro 0      1
# /dev/sda7
/dev/sda7 none            swap    sw              0      0
/dev/scd0      /media/cdrom0  udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0      0

Test to see if that boot fast and modify your /boot/grub/menu.lst to replace all instances of UUID=ef6a1d3d-dc1a-4773-9f97-33108ad129c8 to /dev/sda6
