Clover / 10.10.5 Very slow boot time (> 1 minute)

[gjcourt]

I have a freshly minted hackintosh that's gotten here by a slightly circuitous route. First I used Unibeast to install 10.10.5, then I installed Clover over Unibeast so that I could get all my third party drivers and iMessage working. Since this transformation, I've noticed that booting into OS X takes well over 1 minute, something that shouldn't happen on an Intel SSD. Another problem that may or may not be related, it seems that my NVRAM is getting reset on each boot. Additional piece of debug info, while booting this machine from a Unibest/Chimera USB the boot time is < 10s.

Looking for any and all guidance to help with this problem.

I am having the same problem on 10.10.5. with clover, no cache and about 5 minutes to boot.
I have a Desktop Fujitsu with Ivy Bridge i3 3220, SSD (trim enabled), GT720. Evrything works pretty fine.
Screen is stuck at "root device uuid is '' and than all the '+' for a while and then clover dose everything it should in 7 seconds...

are you using a MOBO that has built in Thunderbolt ports? Sometimes having these enabled can increase the boot time of a hackintosh. If you do and you are not using them just disable them in the BIOS should help significantly.

Or use the verbose flag (-v) on boot and see where the load hangs up. Might be enumerating devices, might be USB timing out, might be a bunch of things. Once you know where it's getting stuck, it's possible to figure out how to fix it...
