| 10.3.2 Startup Time - Fix Has anyone been following up the post at apple.com regarding the startup time after installing 10.3.2? http://discussions.info.apple.com/We...w2.0@.599dfee8 There's a recent post of a fix and wondering if anyone has tried it and does this line in Terminal actually do any harm on the system? Or should I wait for 10.3.3 to be released and hopefully it'll fix this? 10.3.1 Startup Time: 52 secs 10.3.2 Startup Time: 1 min 48 secs ----- 15" TiBook, 1GHz, 1GB Ram, 60GB Drive, Superdrive  |

| Just to clarify, the fix stated in that discussion is this: sudo cp /System/Library/Extensions/BootCache.kext/Contents/Resources/BootCacheControl /usr/sbin It translates as "Make a copy of the file BootCacheControl in the /usr/sbin" directory. The reason this works is that this file is called for during startup, and the system expects the file to be in the /usr/sbin directory. Looking at this command, I can see no way that it could damage your system (unless there is an existing BootCacheControl file in /usr/sbin, which there isn't on my system).

| You can also use a symbolic link: sudo ln -s /System/Library/Extensions/BootCache.kext/Contents/Resources/BootCacheControl /usr/sbin/BootCacheControl This would be better because if Apple updates the one in /System/Library then you will have the wrong version in /usr/sbin

| WOW! That is an amazing difference! It totally skipped all the "Loading Internet", "Loading Apache" etc in the bootup process.

| BTW, several restarts + a property correction + MacJanitor does help a lot too.
