Generally speaking, this is/has been caused here by an external tape
drive that is sometimes turned on at boot time, and sometimes off.
The change in the bus device count caused this effect here. I finally
got enough tape drives that I could mount them internally which was the
end of *that* problem. I suppose it could be caused also by a slow to
get ready disk drive, but with boot times to that point being measured
in the 30 seconds plus area, I'd have troubleing thoughts about such a
drive, its probably on its way out.
Besides, its time to update your xcdroast to the current 0.98 test
version, lots of progress has been made. You might also look at
gnome-toaster, which is quite capable, but to me has a steeper learning
curve.
Cheers, Gene
