ATLAS PC boots very slow

[Sarxell]

The boot is very slow systemd-analyze gives the following output:

Startup finished in 2.079s (kernel) + 5min 17.273s (userspace) = 5min 19.353s graphical.target reached after 5min 17.236s in userspace

The userspace is taking too long to start, I will try to change this and put the steps I make.

So I'm using this tutorial.

method 1: Didn't work. systemd-analyze gave the following output:

Startup finished in 2.156s (kernel) + 5min 19.176s (userspace) = 5min 21.333s graphical.target reached after 5min 19.160s in userspace

Even worse than the first time!

method 2: This method worked really well! systemd-analyze gave the following output: Startup finished in 2.131s (kernel) + 1min 45.568s (userspace) = 1min 47.699s graphical.target reached after 1min 41.196s in userspace

Which is 4 minutes faster.

I think the main problem right now is the BIOS taking (also) very long to load, I will check it too.

I decided to do method 3 from the tutorial.

Right now the boot is moderately fast compared with 5 minutes: Startup finished in 2.124s (kernel) + 18.435s (userspace) = 20.560s graphical.target reached after 18.417s in userspace

With the BIOS, the pc starts after approximately 2 minutes. It's better than before but still a little slow.. For a better performance in the BIOS the last thing is update it but I think that can be risky since if done incorrectly can mess up the pc

Hi @Sarxell ,

4 mins faster is already a lot. I would leave it as is.

Okay!
