When I boot from my USB Hard Drive LILO says:
Loading Linux_2.6_SMP.
It loads in about 30-45 seconds.
Why is it so slow and is there anything I can do to make it faster?
lilo.conf:
Code:
# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
boot = /dev/sda
#compact # faster, but won't work on all systems.
