 hi,
 
 Has there been any progress on tshooting this over the last 8 months?
 
 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.
