plymouth boot boot-time

  1. You can remove plymouth during your boot up process and display progress messages by using:

    sudo -H gedit /etc/default/grub

    Find the line containing:

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

    and remove quiet splash between the double quotes. If you have additional parameters leave them as is.

    Save the file and run:

    sudo update-grub

    Then reboot and watch the messages that appear for any clues on what is causing delays.

    After boot completes run:

    systemd-analze blame

    once more and report back with the results.
