[syslinux] [Bug]: Extlinux needs 1 minute before boot menu is shown
Hello,
when I try to boot from my computer extlinux needs about one minute before the
boot menu is shown. Here's my system configuration
-Two IDE drives on one controller
-Second hdd is boot hdd
-I'm using Arch Linux (i686)
Is there an official bug tracker which I can use? I only found the debian bug
tracker and I can't find any information about bugs on the homepage.
Here is my extlinux.conf:
