slow boot and error

hi

i use opensuse 12.1
i have a core 2 duo 1.6G with 2 gig of ram
my hd (4kb sector disk ) is formatted in btrfs

when i boot, i see error… but th screen switch quickly to a black screen, so i can’'t read the rest…

where can i see the boot msg?

also the boot is very very slow?

any idea?

You could also try pressing F5 at the boot menu and select systemV
See if that works any better

with systemV is faster… is there a way to know if my hd is aligned correctly?

You get a prompt faster, it does not end that fast.
