What are your tips for faster boots? My system seems to hang a bit at POST until it boots into Mint. Right after post I’ll get a blinking cursor for about a full minute until it boots in. All ssd, so I know it’s something I must have done wrong. It’s also a 14 year old processor (amd fx be 8 core, rx580), but win### booted faster on it.
