If you see the message you note during bootup then you have netatalk
installed. If you look in the process monitor you'll see at least the
daemon afpd running and maybe a few others associated with netatalk for
classic AppleTalk.
Anyway, netatalk is not part of the stock distribution (as far as i know
- i had to install it) and you can just uninstall it.
Well, I went over to visit tonight, and did an
$ su -
<root password>
# apt-get remove netatalk
and it said that there was nothing that depended on it, and that
1.9MB would be deleted, so I told it to go away. Debian now boots
in about 1/3 of the time it used to take, and no annoying messages
come out.
I tried just to disable it as another suggested, but I couldn't get
the command to work. Perhaps root has some problem with its PATH
variable.
Anyway, no more problems!
Thanks! (from both of us)
Mike

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
