[SOLVED] I have to wait about 3min to boot. Is it normal?

Aleph · 2011-08-28 13:20:21

luis@crunchbang:~$ sudo umount /dev/sda1
umount: /: device is busy.
        (In some cases useful info about processes that use
         the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))

Before you run `e2fsck -p -v` you need to reboot into recovery mode. (I think machinebacon may have accidentally left that out?)

machinebacon · 2011-08-28 14:51:40

Nah, I mentioned it should be unmounted.

e2fsck can take ages, so be prepared.
Unmount the partition/drive before testing. Use the -p and -v parameters (preen = "repair", verbose).

^ Yes, but kinda difficult to unmount it when logged in. tongue

Boot from a livecd to run e2fsck /dev/sda

Aleph · 2011-08-28 15:51:31

Hi friends, I was doing the mentest again and was correct.

Them booted from the CB livecd and did e2fsck /dev/sda but I get "No such file or directory".

For boot on safe mode the Grub doesn't stop and I don't know how stop the Grub...

Sorry sad

machinebacon · 2011-08-28 17:34:34

you have to run the command as root. sudo e2fsck -p -v /dev/sda1

To stop the GRUB menu just press an arrow key. If you haven't modified the GRUB file, the timeout is 5 seconds.

 sudo e2fsck -p -v /dev/sda1

You can do this with

sudo e2fsck -p -v /dev/sda2

later, too. That's the extended partition.

Could this be a zero-length partition?

machinebacon · 2011-08-28 18:21:27

Ok, this is because sda2 is not ext2/3/4

Well, we haven't forced the filesystem check (even when 'clean'), but I think this is not necessary. Has your computer booted up so slow with other Operating Systems, too (slow = longer than 1:30 minutes)

Aleph · 2011-08-28 18:23:42

Yes always was very slow...

machinebacon · 2011-08-28 18:25:34

Can you please post the output of lspci and lsusb and tell us the exact brand of your laptop?

Aleph · 2011-08-28 18:30:21

My laptod is "INVES", a spanish brand

Okay, this will take some time to examine smile You can meanwhile reboot into your standard #!

Aleph · 2011-08-28 18:34:21

Ok, thanks machinebacon.

machinebacon · 2011-08-28 18:56:40

If there would be a way to disable the card readers in BIOS,...

Well anyway, one thing we haven't check yet is the output (as root) of blkid - copy its output here please!
I want to see if the UUID's are the same like those in /etc/fstab. Thanks.

Aleph · 2011-08-28 19:06:57

I was looking at the Bios and I think it is not possible, but I'll try now.

luis@crunchbang:~$ sudo blkid
[sudo] password for luis:

machinebacon · 2011-08-28 19:14:41

"Unfortunately" the UUID is also not the problem. But we don't give it up. It feels like a hardware issue, though I have to examine both the kernel log as well as the PCI list first...

Does the system itself works normally (after booting into the Desktop) or is it slow, unresponsive?

Aleph · 2011-08-28 19:26:05

The system, sometimes, did slow response, but normally works fine. Is possible that the hardware is bad.

Maybe I should buy an new laptod... smile

Thanks for your help machinebacon.

GuruX · 2011-08-28 23:54:26

If you decide to examine hardware more, Ultimate Boot CD is quite a useful tool. You have lots of hard disk diagnostic tools and stuff like memtest. You'll find it at http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/
But I think that it's best if machinebacon continues to support you.

Aleph · 2011-08-29 07:20:22

Thanks Gurux,

interesting! there are lots of software, maybe too much... But wich one should use? I'm lost...

Machinebacon, I forget! sometime the battery stop charging, when I disconnect and reconnect start charging again... strange too.

how old is your laptop, and what brand? in my experience, stuff like Acer just breaks down after a while because the reason they can give you a cheap laptop is because they build it with cheap components that just don't last that long. so that may just be your issue here..?
