Hi list. Few days ago I've succesfully installed arch. It was booting really fast first time (i.e. without gnome, networkmanager, etc). After installing GNOME and some daemons, adding them to the rc.conf, the system now takes 30-40 seconds to load. I heard that HAL daemon takes a lot of time during boot and it's functionality can be replaced by udev. How could I completely remove HAL and still use GNOME without troubles? Is it possible? I have: - GNOME 2.30 - xorg 1.8 - hal 0.5

something is screwed in your system. it should be that slow. Like i starting point, check to see if the hostname is the same after booting into gnome and check /etc/hosts -- Ionuț
