I've recently installed Ubuntu 22.04 on a new SSD, but it is taking around 30 seconds to boot up. I've seen people booting up their Ubuntu system within 15 seconds.

So, how can I improve the boot time further?

Device Information:

  • Model: HP 15-da0077tx
  • RAM: 8GB
  • SSD: Crucial p2 500 GB NVME
  • CPU: Intel Core i5 8th Gen

Currently, I have a dual boot on SSD, with Windows 10. I also have an older version of Ubuntu on my HDD.

Outputs:

devansh@Dev:~$ systemd-analyze

Please let me know if you need any further information.

  • Some settings to review: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1284302/is-it-possible-to-make-ubuntu-20-04-boot-faster Do you have a UUID that is now invalid, as if you reinstall & have new UUID for swap but fstab has old UUID? Have you updated UEFI and updated SSD firmware? – oldfred Jun 05 '22 at 14:04
  • @oldfred All the UUIDs are valid and correct, and the drivers and SSD firmware are also updated, still, it takes around 25-30 seconds to boot up. – Devansh Soni Jun 07 '22 at 09:45
  • Since plymouth seems to be your longest issue, did you try the setting change in grub from quiet splash to noplymouth as shown in link in first comment. – oldfred Jun 07 '22 at 13:30
