I have been having an issue with linux boot up it takes like more than an hour I always end Up forcing my laptop to shutdown and keep opening it until it opens.

I ran the follwoing command

systemd-analyze blame

and the output was the follwoing

Bootup is not yet finished (org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager.FinishTimestampMonotonic=0).
Please try again later.
Hint: Use 'systemctl list-jobs' to see active jobs

When I ran the command listed in hint I found out that plymouth-quit-wait.service was running and other jobs were waiting on it so I stopped it and re-ran the analyze cmd and this was the output

23h 9min 7.830s plymouth-quit-wait.service      //<- This takes one day!!                      
   1min 21.185s plymouth-read-write.service                          
        32.321s grub-common.service                                  
        32.143s apport.service                                       
        32.028s lvm2-lvmpolld.service                                
        29.685s apt-daily.service                                    
        21.733s docker.service                                       
        17.724s logrotate.service                                    
        15.973s dev-sda6.device 

How can I solve this issue

    "plymouth-quit-wait.service //<- This takes one day!!". "and other jobs were waiting on it " Nope. It is not the one that makes you wait... it is the one that waits for you: it is waiting at the grub screen for an enter. It is something else that is the issue and this is a side-effect. – Rinzwind Mar 13 '21 at 15:11

    add results of systemctl list-dependencies --reverse plymouth-quit-wait.service :) – Rinzwind Mar 13 '21 at 15:12
  • @Rinzwind systemctl list-dependencies --reverse plymouth-quit-wait.service output might be a shock as there is not much to output. ;) – Raffa Mar 17 '21 at 09:21
  • @Rinzwind The output of the command you listed plymouth-quit-wait.service ● └─multi-user.target ● └─graphical.target – Abdo Shahda Mar 18 '21 at 09:47
