Is it normal, that booting a flashboot image on a Soekris net4501
takes upwards of 5 minutes?

I get as far as:

sing drive 0, partition 3.
Loading...
probing: pc0 com0 com1 pci mem[639K 63M a20=on]
disk: hd0+
>> OpenBSD/i386 BOOT 2.13
-
com0: 19200 baud
switching console to com0

and then there is a long long wait time before the rest of the boot
process kcks in.
