I'm very new to Linux and I would like to use Linux only in the future . I installed the this distro in my Sony vaio laptop having 4gb ram and 500gb hdd along with Windows 7. But the actual problem is elementary os taking too much time to boot with flickering logo or some time screen is loaded with tons of lines of booting data with lots of failed message line in between .. I have been updated and upgrade the system already . I just want to get ride of this problem and boot fast , currently it took more than half an hour to boot . Any help would be really appreciated.. thanks
Try with this: Open the terminal and type(copy/paste): Code (Text): sudo nano /etc/systemd/system.conf add: Code (Text): DefaultTimeoutStartSec=10s DefaultTimeoutStopSec=10s Note there's a difference with upper and lower case, so be careful. save <ctrl>+<o> exit <ctrl>+<x>
