    I everybody! I'm new to Linux, and I gave a chance to ElementaryOs.
    I installed the ElementaryOs alongside Windows 10, in a different partition. But I'm experiencing really slow boot time. From Elementary and Windows. Before installing elementary I only have windows and the boot is really fast.

    I runned the command "dmesg", and I obtained this output. - http://imgur.com/a/OEmk1
    Any ideias of what it could be?

    My SSD is an SanDisk SD8SN8U256G1122.

    Thank you in advance! :)

    Did you remember to add swap space when making partitions? Did you know when shut down windows 8 or 10 they go in hibernation instead that's why they boot fast.
    Code (Text):
    systemd-analyze
    Also
    Code (Text):

    sudo nano /etc/systemd/system.conf
    uncomment:
    DefaultTimeoutStartSec=10s
    DefaultTimeoutStopSec=10s

    and set your prefer time.

    systemd-analyze blame
    is idd a very good idea,
    furthermore: cleanup /etc/fstab, put only linux filesystems in it. Or even better: migrate everything except the rootfs to systemd mount units

    find the terminal application in the menu and type:
    cat /etc/fstab
    and
    sudo systemd-analyze blame
    use your mouse to copy and paste it here, we'll help you

    some things really takes their time... If you don't need a modem:
    sudo systemctl disable ModemManager.service
    sudo systemctl mask ModemManager.service
    same for bluetooth
    and you can disable:
    - speech-dispatcher.service (unless you need text-to-voice)
    - apport.service (unless you have an unstable system)
    - vpn.service (unless you need a vpn)
    - pantheon-parental-controls.service (unless you have kids on your system)
    - rsyslog.service (unless you'll need remote logging)
    - pppd-dns.service (unless you'll have a modem or dial-in via pppoa/pppoe)
    but i have no explenation for 399ms dev-sda6.device ...

    I'm also having a really slow boot and I can't seem to fix it.

    The scenario: I have a SDD + HDD on my computer and previously I had Windows 10 on the SSD and Ubuntu 17.04 on my HDD (which was shared with Windows data storage). My Windows installation was broken, so I formatted my SSD and installed Elementary OS on top of it and later reinstalled Windows on my HDD on top of Ubuntu. So I had to reinstall GRUB in order for it to show Windows using boot-repair. It accused an error in the and didn't give me the log file, but also said it was successful (and well grub is fine, it lists elementary os and windows correctly).

    The only problem is that Elementary OS takes 3 mins to boot now.

    Code (Text):
    systemd-analyze

    Startup finished in 3.731s (firmware) + 7.582s (loader) + 8.313s (kernel) + 3min 383ms (userspace) = 3min 20.011s
    Code (Text):
    cat /etc/fstab

    # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
    #
    # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
    # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
    # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
    #
    # <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
    /dev/mapper/elementary--vg-root /               ext4    errors=remount-ro 0       1
    # /boot was on /dev/sda2 during installation
    UUID=c5cb7654-353d-42f1-a4d0-e12085da2422 /boot           ext2    defaults        0       2
    # /boot/efi was on /dev/sda1 during installation
    #UUID=A7F7-C47D  /boot/efi       vfat    umask=0077      0       1
    /dev/mapper/elementary--vg-swap_1 none            swap    sw              0       0
    # swap was on /dev/sdb5 during installation
    UUID=9183ee89-60f4-4fe7-bcd4-0c34da15836b none            swap    sw              0       0
    UUID=A7F7-C47D    /boot/efi    vfat    defaults    0    1
     
    And I uploaded the output of
    Code (Text):
    systemd-analyze plot
    Any help is really appreciated!

    EDIT: I fixed it, I posted in the official forum: https://elementaryos.stackexchange.com/questions/12523/slow-boot-after-reinstalling-grub/12533
