Hi Guys. I really enjoy Deepin 25...thanks to community.

I have a SATA II SSD and Deepin 25 takes 55s to boot after post.. Is this normal and anything I can do to speed it up? I've already done systemd-analyze blame but nothing stands out and it shows boot time about 24s...Where is the remaining 30s going?

I have a Gigabyte motherboard GA-F2A58M-DS2 with 8gb DDR3 Ram and AMD A6 6400K APU

Any ideas?

THank you

The 31-second delay beyond the 24 seconds shown by systemd-analyze blame suggests the slowdown is occurring before the operating system kernel starts, most likely during the BIOS/firmware initialization (POST) phase of your older Gigabyte motherboard. To speed this up, you should focus on optimizing your BIOS settings by enabling Fast Boot and disabling unused legacy hardware (like serial ports or network boot) to prevent the firmware from spending unnecessary time checking components.

Hi thanks for reply. The POST happens really quick...then the OS boot messages occur since I turned off quiet splash in grub. Basically the 55s comes AFTER the POST... I've optimised bios and both Linux mint 22 and windows 10 used to boot in around 25s. I also checked the SSD health with gnome disks and it's fine. Any other ideas? Thanks again
