Interresting. On my box it takes at most a few seconds (don't have
printk times enabled, so I can't give exact numbers). My best estimate
is 2-3 seconds to run the self tests.

I wonder what's so different about our machines. Mine is a Athlon64 X2
4400+ w/ 2GB RAM.

relevant config options look identical to yours... Strange..
