Hi there! I just upgraded from Parallels Desktop 3.0 to 4.0. I have an Ubuntu image that I converted in the process.
I'm a little bummed, because Parallels seems to hang for about ninety seconds after I click the "Start" button. In particular, I...
1. Open Parallels Desktop.
2. Select my Ubuntu Linux VM and get a window with The Penguin sitting in the middle.
3. Click the "Start" button and see it depress.
4. Twiddle thumbs for 90s.
5. The Penguin goes away and I see the VM start to boot.
During "Step 4", the Parallels application is totally responsive; I can open the configuration panel, etc. The machine isn't doing anything (no CPU is being used, no network traffic, no disk grinding). Once I get past Step 4, everything seems to be just fine.
Any clue what's going on? This is very annoying!
Thanks in advance,
Chris
