the 5 minute blank screen would drive me barmy.
questions
what usb rating are the usb sticks and the ports they are plugged into? usb1, usb2, usb3, usb3.1, given the read, write, transfer rates this could make a bit of a difference especially if you are coupling them with a usb port rated for usb1 as an example.
1 computer is a dual core but what is the cpu speed, the other a quad core whats its cpu speed? surely this would add a difference to the boot up time.
i dont know much about the uefi/gpt thing, but the impression i get from this thing is that it acts more like a save state. the equivalent on a bios/mbr would be hibernate/sleep mode. at least this is how i look at it.
i dont know anything about grub2 so not sure how that operates, grub4dos had some quite interesting ways of doing things though.
i wouldnt think an “if then do” statement (ie if bios/mbr then boot syslinux but if gpt then boot uefi) would take upto 5 minutes to process, but i suppose it might if grub2 is geared more towards a uefi boot than a bios boot, maybe its taking 5 minutes to reprocess the commmands to be acceptible to bios boot?
