Mint 19.3 (Cinnamon): Boot time?
by FenderGuy from LinuxQuestions.org on (#50Q8W)
Guys, I have a Samsung Series 3 Notebook, model NP300E5a-A05US and I recently upgraded from Mint 18.3 (Cinnamon) to Mint 19.3 (Cinnamon). Once booted, my laptop seems to run fine; in fact, I love the enhancements made since my previous installation of Mint 18.3 (Cinnamon).
My issue is boot time (see log below):
$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 7.310s (kernel) + 1min 57.249s (userspace) = 2min 4.560s
graphical.target reached after 46.787s in userspace
It seems that my Mint 18.3 installation booted much faster than my new Mint 19.3 installation, so my question is:
Is 2+ minutes boot time typical for my setup, or can I do better?
Thanks in advance, guys.
