That 4.14 kernal definitely improved the boot times compared to what I was seeing and what I posted here: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/boot-scripts/issues/10
However, I am still getting a boot time of close to a minute (~32 seconds for both *dev-mmcblk1p1.device* and *generic-board-startup.service*). # systemd-analyze Startup finished in 21.569s (kernel) + 37.032s (userspace) = 58.602s # systemd-analyze blame 32.599s dev-mmcblk1p1.device 31.957s generic-board-startup.service 3.137s systemd-udev-trigger.service 2.602s loadcpufreq.service 2.090s networking.service 1.638s ssh.service 1.542s connman.service 1.385s systemd-logind.service 1.196s systemd-journald.service 1.164s avahi-daemon.service 1.158s udhcpd.service 841ms dnsmasq.service 833ms pppd-dns.service 786ms bb-wl18xx-wlan0.service 623ms cpufrequtils.service 536ms systemd-timesyncd.service 497ms rsyslog.service 445ms wpa_supplicant.service 416ms systemd-random-seed.service 367ms systemd-udevd.service 350ms kmod-static-nodes.service 333ms systemd-modules-load.service 314ms systemd-sysctl.service 311ms systemd-user-sessions.service 311ms hostapd.service 304ms systemd-update-utmp.service 303ms sys-kernel-debug.mount 301ms sys-kernel-config.mount 297ms systemd-remount-fs.service 275ms systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service 248ms systemd-journal-flush.service 220ms media-sd.mount 206ms systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev.service 191ms sys-fs-fuse-connections.mount 185ms user@0.service Can anything be done to really trim down the boot time to be not much more than the kernel boot time? And what does one sacrifice in doing so? A 30 second boot would be great. This 60 boot isn't too bad, either, of course, thanks for your work on that kernel 4.14. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
