Boot delay userspace in 1min 37sec [SOLVED] itself

Hi,
It takes about 1min 37sec before I get the login prompt. During this time on the console on the first line is output /dev/sdd2 and on the second line the cursor is blinking  for the entire duration. I gather it has something to do with systemd but do not know how to proceed.

# systemd-analyze
Startup finished in 3.662s (kernel) + 1min 33.710s (userspace) = 1min 37.373s 
graphical.target reached after 1min 33.710s in userspace

system-analyze blame:

Remove the "quiet" parameter from the kernel command line.
Could be some fsck.

I agree - something odd / long running is going on with your HDD/SDD. It takes 18 seconds just to discover the disk:

Feb 08 10:32:19 puff systemd[1]: Finished Flush Journal to Persistent Storage.

Re: Boot delay userspace in 1min 37sec [SOLVED] itself

Thanks very much for the replies. I disabled the 'quiet' parameter, when it boots up, it gets stuck on this:

A start job is running for: /sys/sub devices/eth0 <secs counter>/1m30

Every other boot when getting to the GUI, there is no eth0 network connection and I have to reboot.

Also, when it gets to the GUI, the UI is unresponsive for about 30 secs (i.e. no mouse/keyb) and CPU sitting at 100%. When I finally get mouse/keyb activation, and I run 'top' there is probably about 20 'systemd-udevd' processes running, but I don't know if this is abnormal or not. When these finish running, the CPU gets back to normal:

Re: Boot delay userspace in 1min 37sec [SOLVED] itself

Are you dual booting the system with any other OS?  dhcpcd@eth0.service taking 90 seconds to timeout and fail due to the missing eth0 would explain the long boot time.
Please provide more information about eth0,  what device is it?  What kernel driver does it use?  To rule out another possible issues do you use any network management services other than dhcpcd?

Re: Boot delay userspace in 1min 37sec [SOLVED] itself

Problem solved itself after a couple of months, it was introduced after a system upgrade and a couple of months later disappeared after a system upgrade with no action on my part. System now boots up in normal time once again.
