Meanwhile users suffer: After having updated the kernel, I had to wait almost 5 minutes until I could log in after boot. That's almost as slow as booting Windows. # systemd-analyze Startup finished in 813ms (kernel) + 13.472s (initrd) + 4min 1.948s (userspace) = 4min 16.234s graphical.target reached after 4min 1.908s in userspace # systemd-analyze blame 3min 41.865s plymouth-quit-wait.service 3min 29.156s purge-kernels.service 27.809s mandb.service ... 9ms dracut-pre-pivot.service 8ms dracut-pre-mount.service 4ms initrd-udevadm-cleanup-db.service 1ms sys-fs-fuse-connections.mount 1ms sys-kernel-config.mount Summary from /var/log/zypp/history: 2023-01-28 17:31:44|command|root@i7g4x4a|'/usr/bin/zypper' '-n' 'purge-kernels'| 2023-01-28 17:32:30|remove |kernel-default-devel|5.14.21-150400.24.33.2|x86_64|root@pc| # 2023-01-28 17:33:38 kernel-default-optional-5.14.21-150400.24.33.2.x86_64 removed ok 2023-01-28 17:33:38|remove |kernel-default-optional|5.14.21-150400.24.33.2|x86_64|| 2023-01-28 17:33:54|remove |kernel-devel|5.14.21-150400.24.33.1|noarch|root@pc| # 2023-01-28 17:34:21 kernel-default-extra-5.14.21-150400.24.33.2.x86_64 removed ok 2023-01-28 17:34:21|remove |kernel-default-extra|5.14.21-150400.24.33.2|x86_64|| 2023-01-28 17:35:02|remove |kernel-default|5.14.21-150400.24.33.2|x86_64|root@pc| So that's three rebuilds of the initrd when removing the packages for _one_ kernel version! (Related to comment #6: It seems bootloader was reconfigured only one, so the os-prober is not the biggest contributor) How does Fedora manage it to make only one rebuild of the initrd at the end? Maybe have a look! In version before the bug, kernel removal took place in the background at least, and the user was able to start working while kernels were removed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
