I newly purchased a new machine (specs- 8gb ram 1tb hdd i5 7th gen) and install Ubuntu 18.10 with single boot,but the booting time will take approximately 1 minuits 10 secs. Please suggest me any solution for this problem! I really disappointed about that.

  • Not necessarily a problem. HDDs are slow and the CPU is no powerhouse either. And if you installed in Legacy mode even worse. –  Oct 23 '18 at 14:51
  • But it will take too much time! is it normal or not ? – Shouvik Ghosh Oct 23 '18 at 15:01
  • We don't know what you installed additionally that may be running at the boot time, we don't know how the OS was installed. Your question is unanswerable as it is."Too much time" is your opinion. –  Oct 23 '18 at 15:08

    Indeed, your question is way too vague and difficult for anyone to help you with. You said the boot time takes 1:10. How long did you expect? 1 minute? 50 seconds? And on what are these expectations based on? If you had two computers with identical specifications and one takes 1:10 and another 0:50, then I think someone can help you to get the former to match the latter. But your question lacks any feasible goal. If boot time was your aim, then you probably should have bought a better computer with an SSD. – Ray Oct 23 '18 at 15:15
  • But do make sure you are comparing fairly. If the other computer has an SSD, then I seriously doubt there is a way to tune your computer to boot up as quickly. – Ray Oct 23 '18 at 15:16

You can consider different options:

  1. Installing Ubuntu 16.04 will do faster both booting and working.
  2. Install SSD drive and run the OS from it - will extremely increase speed of both booting and working.
  3. Remove Startup Apps if any.
  4. Change the desktop manager to the smaller and faster - LXDE, Xfce and etc
