boot optimizing the file system mount MYSTERY
On my computer I have TWO mysterIES that ARE driving me nuts. at boot time there is a very very long (maybe a minute?) wait while the computer mounts the filesystem. Its not doing an fsck or anything its just mounting the file system AFTER A CLEAN restart or shutdown. One can hear a furious amoun of disk activity. (I know this is the file system mount from booting with the command-V option).

Hi,
boot optimizing the file system mount MYSTERY
With very slow disk reads, it's also worth checking for bad blocks on the hard drive--I see a fair number of those on my client's hard drives. If a drive has bad blocks, sometimes they can be "fixed" by formatting the drive with Disk Utility's option to zero all data, but at least half the time, the bad blocks return, so it's better to just replace the drive. |
