    Ubuntu Slow Boot

    Last day my PC become very slow to boot.

    boby@ok-pc-01:~$ systemd-analyze 
    Startup finished in 15.777s (kernel) + 3min 1.400s (userspace) = 3min 17.178s
    graphical.target reached after 1min 47.169s in userspace
    boby@ok-pc-01:~$ 
    

    It take 3 minutes and 17 seconds to boot up.

    This happend after i did some changes to my 2nd hard disk and added ZFS partition. First thing i thought it was ZFS that make my PC slow.

    systemd-analyze blame did not show any useful info.

    systemd-analyze blame
    

    systemd analyze blame

    To find the problem, i edited the file

    sudo  vi /etc/defaults/grub
    

    Find the line

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
    

    Replace it with

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
    

    Now rebuild grub.cfg with

    update-grub2
    

    Rebooted the PC. Now instead of showing Ubuntu splash screen, you get lot of text, that shows what actually your PC is doing.

    Ubuntu Grub Disable Splash

    From the boot message i found system waiting 1 minutes 30 seconds for mounting one of the disk partition. This is because i re-partitioned my 2nd hard disk and forget to remove the disk from /etc/fstab.

    I removed the non existant disk entry from /etc/fstab and rebooted PC. Now it boot much faster.

    systemd analyze
