    Boot problem?

    Ok so I recently removed Winblows Vista from my laptop and replaced it with Kubuntu 10.10 (I left the recovery partition on there, just in case). When I turn on the computer, the GRUB menu appears, I press enter, then a little flashing underscore appears on the screen in the top left hand corner. After a few seconds, the Kubuntu logo appears and I can log in.

    But yesterday I replace Kubuntu with Ubuntu 10.10. The Boot process is the same, but the little flashing underscore in the top left hand corner flashes for about 10 seconds longer then Kubuntu 10.10 did, and then a few paragraphs of text appears for a few seconds, then I am logged in automatically.

    Is this "unusual" boot process anything to worry about, or am I just being a noob.

    Thanks,

    Sounds normal to me.

    The text you are seeing is stuff like how many mounts until the file-system check, battery status, and AppArmor profiles being skipped etc.

    Nothing to worry about
