yes, same with my R32. Since I use the lilo compact option it boots 
considerably faster:

# Enable map compaction:
# Tries to merge read requests for adjacent sectors into a single

# map smaller.  Using `compact' is especially recommended when
# booting from a floppy disk.  It is disabled here by default
