I have tried everything to cut my boot-time(currently about 1 min and 10 seconds), used different versions of AppleViaAta kext, a version of AppleOnBoardSata kext which was modified for sb450, and the appleatiata kext, and I always get the iokitwait problem, and always about the same time to boot.
Now I just tried installing your Lawless distro, and unfortunately it didnīt help at all, the boot time was about 1 minute 20 seconds, and I still got the iokitwait error.
My machine is Acer Aspire 5104wlmi, with AMD Turion x2 TL-56, ati 1100 xpress chipset, SB450, S-ATA 150...
EDIT:
Okey... now I found that the IOKitWait timeout is definitely caused by the IOATAFamily.kext, on my machine. If I boot on my external USB disk, without the IOATAFamily.kext, then I donīt get the IOKitWait thing, but then I donīt get access to my internal disk either... :-s
I am trying different version of IOATAFamily.kext, as well as just different plugins into IOATAFamily, in hope of finding a solution that gives me access to my internal drive but without the iokitwait....
If you guys have any ideas/suggestions, I would appreciate it.
