then weve two totally different issues.

looking more into it, I think my problem
is somewhere in udev i.e.
I get stuckage during boot becuase of some
rule in rules.d for about the same time
as what I see with s2ram.

my guess udev is sitting with some command
in *.rules in of which doesn't
know what to do(reason for 30 secs)before
going onto the next task.
(but could be wrong).

interesting thing is my other machine
all though different, is running the same
udev and rules with no problem.
