Basically, systemd-udev-settle takes 1min 30sec in the booting process. Since I use LVM and btrfs systems, I cannot mask the udev service from booting. Any insight would be appreciated. Below are some of my log.

The network manager needs a lot of time to boot up, but really? It requires internet to boot up? So, I check which services use it: $ systemctl show network-online.target | grep -E 'WantedBy|Before' WantedBy=whoopsie.service samba-ad-dc.service nmbd.service apt-daily.timer smbd.service Before=whoopsie.service nmbd.service smbd.service rc-local.service apt-daily.timer samba-ad-dc.service snapd.refresh.service Thanks, Qi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1730278/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
