Having similar issues on DIY system (original bug was specific to Dell). Specs: ASUS P6T7, 24GB-ECC, Xeon E5620. Of note, the 8.2 memstick.img does *not* have this issue with loader delay, but it does show up after a post-install rebuild of freshly csup'd -GENERIC. OP had ~90sec delay, I'm in the ~10min range for kernel to start loading (from USB stick). Bizarre. Thoughts? TIA. R.
