Hanging during boot

As a followup to the previous post (and this one before that)...

It still takes 4-5 hours to boot.... specifically, dmesg shows that this took 4 hours...

Any thoughts why a non-existant IDE device is polled for 4 hours during boot?  Or why after finally booting, it is *still* doing it?

UPDATE: Bug submitted

  1. Special thanks to Kerry Shu at Sun for working extensively with me offline; it is now fixed. Boot is now taking less than 8 minutes from firefox-reboot-firefox
