The list of currently running services is not really helpful with what happened during boot.

It would be helpful if you could at least provide the outputs as root of

Code: Select all

systemd-analyze blame | head
systemd-analyze critical-chain
systemd-analyze plot > boot.svg

and then later attach the file boot.svg here.

For the "checking for new hardware" you could try disabling the respective service, as root via

Code: Select all

systemctl mask mandriva-everytime.service

[doktor5000]

Code: Select all

systemd-analyze blame | head

          7.489s systemd-udev-settle.service

          4.386s mandriva-everytime.service

          2.584s gssproxy.service
          2.577s mga-bg-res.service

I don't see any unusual delays, and overall it takes a little over 30s until graphical target is reached.

From when to when do you measure that 1min31 seconds ? And what bootloader do you use?

[pabbuu28]

from screen where you can choose OS till appearing xfce desktop. And for bootloader i am using grub

[pabbuu28]

Code: Select all

systemctl mask mandriva-everytime.service

[/quote]
reduced time, now it is 1min6seconds

One thing i forgot to tell, that at booting OS the NVIDIA screen appears also as i have nvidia videocard, after that xfce desktop loads.

And such error is at startup:
[FAILED] Failed to start Load legacy module configuration.
See 'systemctl status fedora-loadmodules.service' for details.

after checking error is that modprobe could not insert hdap module

[doktor5000]

Can you please attach a full log after a fresh boot, as root run

Code: Select all

journalctl -ab > /tmp/journal.log

after logging in to XFCE and then attach /tmp/journal.log here.

Well the log begins at Dec 11 18:46:02 and graphical login begins at Dec 11 18:46:39, I don't see any unusual delays there.

Also, directly before login:

Dec 11 18:46:28 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Startup finished in 3.724s (kernel) + 27.453s (userspace) = 31.178s.

I see, perhaps this is because of old hardware on the laptop then. By the way thank you very much
