boot times - tomg54 - 07-10-2018

Just a comment.  Lite 3.8 since 2.0 on an older hdd. 4 years, fantastic, no problems.  I mean 0 problems.  Lite 4 on ssd has some issues. Make breakfast while waiting for boot. VB purge a no go.  All good though.  3.8 on my main hdd just moves along.  Thanks to all of the developers.  I have no plans to abandon this ship. It has served me too well.  An aside, 1st linux was 2.0 on a Dell 32bit from 2003.  That is why Windows is in my rear view mirror.

Linux Lite 4.0 needs about 70 seconds to boot  (from grub-entry to login-screen).
How can I accelerate it ?

Other distros on my PC need about 25 to 32 seconds.
antix 25 seconds,  linux-mint19xfce 32 seconds,  peppermint9 32 seconds.

end of systemd log (the first second is ok, therefore I don't post it):

As you can see from your terminal output, your vbox.service is taking up a huge amount of boot-time.
Do you need virtual machines to run on your PC? If you don't then delete vbox.service. This has come up a few times already,
but here is the solution - it should speed up things very significantly for you:

Code:
sudo apt purge virtualbox*
sudo systemctl stop vboxadd.service
sudo systemctl stop vboxadd-service.service
sudo systemctl disable vboxadd.service
sudo systemctl disable vboxadd-service.service

Perfect.

Thank you very much, especially for the commands you posted.

Now the boot-time takes 32 seconds only.
Since I have no SSD but old fashioned HDD, I consider this as very fast according to the other light distros I am used to.

Thanks to the Linux Lite team for the distro.
I like very much what I see.
