Hi and welcome to the forums.

A bit more info will be useful. What is your Amiga config for a start (let's avoid 'buy a faster Amiga' type comments).

Also, is it starting ShapeShifter or booting into MacOS that you feel is taking a long time?

Finally, what is 'a long time' to you and what are you comparing against?

Shapeshifter hardfiles are horrendously slow. If you have to use them, put them on a fast partition (I.e., SFS or PFS) with lots of buffers. If you can use a dedicated partition for your Mac hard drive, that will be much faster.
