Everything runs at a normal speed until it mounts /dev/md0 and runs /stand/sysinstall. At that point the whole process slows to a crawl. It does not freeze, but it is really slow. I suffered through the Standard install, which has been installing bin to / for the last 12 hours at about 0.3 KB per second. I have a dual celeron 433 setup using an Abit BP6 motherboard. I saw that its ACPI setup is blacklisted, so I disabled it in the BIOS. I have disabled ACPI at the boot loader prompt as well. I did not see anything about this in the INSTALL, RELNOTES or README docs. Am I missing something? Are there any other kernel hints that would be useful? Thanks for the help! Wes
