Long Delay when booting HP dv6130us Laptop

[Robert Trembath]

When booting Fiesty herd 5, I would get a 30 sec delay halfway through the boot process. Using Ctl-Alt-F1 I could see it was hanging on configuring the network interfaces. I use network-manager so the only interface needed is loopback.

I opened /etc/network/interfaces and remarked out all interfaces except loopback and rebooted. My bootup time went from 65 sec to 20 sec. for a full boot to login time. My network and network-manager are fully functional still.

I remember reading in the docs for network-manager to remove all interfaces except loopback back in drapper. Drapper was the fastest booting system I had until now.

If network-manager is going to be the default, then the entries for those interfaces should be removed or remarked out.

Many thanks for your hardware. In order to confirm your bug. I forgot to ask you to post dmesg output. It's probably that is a kernel problem.

Actually, I have tested my fix in Drapper and Fiesty now and it works in
both. Commenting out the adapters fixed the issue in both installs.

Ok, in this case I close this report. Please reopen if the problem could happen too.

Marco.

Isn't the bug still present: that all the entries that appear in /etc/network/interfaces unnecessarily slow down booting? Manually editing this file is a workaround, but not a real fix IMHO.
