My server uses equally long time to start and XBMC would freeze ; that is no longer the case with the additions I made. It will stay black for those 10-20 seconds, but as soon as the server gets online XBMC continues and is good to go.
It would be even better if a message could be displayed while waiting, but that is probably not so easy because it is during skin-initialization that the MySql server is contacted..
To 'touch' your drives I would recommend an Addon- script. It should be relatively easy to put together. See http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...g_services
That way you can keep-alive the drives you like for as long as XBMC is running, not just on startup. And it should resume after a standby of your XBMC if that is how you run it.
