Why does my RN424 spin up at bootup then seemingly fans spin down, then up again andthen fully boot?

It seems like it is always something:smileyhappy: I just noticed this the last few times I have turned on my RN424.  The subject tries to explain it but it seems like the fans spin max for a while ...

    I believe this is normal. The boot loader starts the fans, the real OS has to start them again, and eventually the temps are read and the fan speed controls kick in.
