can you post some more of the messages you get when you boot, starting with the
first one that looks like an error, and every message from then on? Maybe the
last 10 or 15 messages.
Are there any "mount" errors?
I think a number of things can cause this symptom.
What kind of hardware (how much ram, what sort of hard disc) are you using?
What filesystem are you using?
