Yeah, I think last time I ran a kernel build was 4.0. Why bother anymore ? (imo)

    thanks for advice, i shall not try it. Used to working with ubuntu then settled with Deepin for months and later found performance issues then came Solus4. Kernel update from main stream is easy and no system break occur. Precaution is better then cure. My system AMD A9 is faster then ever but slow during boot up and initial start of some applications. Is 60 to 100 seconds boot up normal?.

        Probably not the best person to ask. My system is from 2010. My bios takes that long to detect all my hard drives (not really, but it does take awhile). Ask me again when zen 2 is out... money is burning a hole in my pocket. Launch already!

        You can run:
        systemd-analyze blame

        To see what the hold up is.

            I think working in virtual machine and doing messy things is fine. But boxes in Solus4 do have some issues or i'm impatient.

              With both my previous i5 4590 and current R5 2600, my boot time is around 5-6 seconds from turning on the PC on Solus. In fact it is the fastest boot up experience I have ever experienced including Windows. so 60-100 seconds do sound extremely high to me. If you are using a VM then I don't know though. Ran other distributions on VMs but never Solus.

              Startup finished in 12.694s (firmware) + 512ms (loader) + 893ms (kernel) + 1.533s (initrd) + 1.069s (userspace) = 16.703s
              graphical.target reached after 817ms in userspace

              dostana Make sure your fstab is alright. Also if you've got multiple distros make sure your swap partition's UUID hasn't changed.

                  Yeah, 60-100 seconds is way too long. Even my old Frankenstein system (thankfully now retired) booted faster than that with Solus.

                    I think it got fixed by a surprise. Re-installed though not a right way to do so had to install other applications. Need to be too careful here as Software Center opens a lot of tools too tempting to try look alike tools then end up into a mess.

                    hope this is fixed & considered solved but need to keep all options on table.
