Fedora SOMETIMES boots very slow..
Sometimes when I turn on my laptop and view all the services as they are being started up, it happens very, very slowly (it takes about 7 minutes).
Yet, if i shutdown my computer, and within less than 30minutes or so, turn it back on, all the services start faster and the computer boots within less than a minute.
Any ideas as to why this happens (and why time has such an effect on boot speed)?
Thanks.

do you have another linux distro also installed AND mounted ( using fstab)
my fedora 9 install checks the CentOS "/home" and " /" partitions every 21 boots

tune2fs -l /dev/whatever your filesystem is called/disk it's on. Look for the "maximum mount count" field, that's how many times it'll mount without fscking itself automatically.

Lets keep it here as your initial question was different  and as i mentioned there what does the full boot.log show it's a bit more verbose in it's output.
Enjoy the Choice

Well, I just rebooted my computer, so when it logged this information, it logged it as happening fast (not when it's slow).
Anyway, here's the boot.log file:
Code:

There may be older boots logs in that directory see if you can find one that had the long boot time the date is added to the .log extention so today would be .log-20090426

I think the default, now, for F 10 is setting to -1, which is never. Does anybody have an opinion as to how often it *should* be done?

My boot gets hung up in a couple of places-- the first is when detecting (or whatever it's doing) synaptics. I just watch the screen, and every time it "hangs" I press the space-bar, and things proceed swimmingly. I only need to do it in about three places, it gets better with each update, and it still boots much faster than Vista on the same box. And the Vista is only 32-bit, so it only has half as many bits it has to mess with
