My system is taking way too long to boot up since I installed ubuntu. I have a dual boot with windows 10 on a reasonably fast notebook. After selecting the OS on the grub menu, it goes to a purple screen and stays on it for a long time.
So I did what was suggested here and enabled messaging to see what the system was doing. But the messages take way too long to show up as well.
Here's the output of my systemd-analyze blame:
51.299s dev-sda7.device
32.721s systemd-journal-flush.service
28.578s dev-loop1.device
28.171s dev-loop3.device

7.825s snapd.service
And here is the output of systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 49.498s (firmware) + 5min 14.605s (loader) + 5.855s (kernel) + 1min 21.736s (userspace) = 7min 31.696s
So i guess my problem is with the loader. Any ideas?
