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.

    Considering that from my own experience systemd tends to increment boot times by a factor of about 20x due to insisting about things like raising a wifi interface that won’t ever connect because you’re later on supposed to plug in the wifi password (no save to store), which is an outright historic systemd problem, I wonder: is systemd-anamyze blame at least honest enough to recognize the fault is in its own design, or will it always blame it on something else in the system?

      I couldn’t tell you. Personally I avoid systemd. My daily driver is Alpine Linux. lol
