--- Comment #2 from Rahim Barbamas sb56637@gmail.com --- Hi, thanks for looking into this.

Yes, this is a slightly older Acer 4810T x86-64 laptop with 4GB of RAM and a spinning hard drive.

It does still appear to have some kind of conflict. After "Started Login Manager", there is a delay of several seconds, and then "A start job is running for" alternating between X Display Manager and NetworkManager, with a little ASCI animation of delay. I'm attaching my hwinfo.

Between "Started Login Manager" and getting past the "Start job is running for" is about 16 seconds, which is a significant percentage of the total time that a systemd Linux system usually takes to boot on this laptop. So I would consider this to be a bug. I thought that systemd was supposed to have parallel boot processes, so this kind of waiting on one service for another to finish shouldn't happen during boot?

--- Comment #4 from Bruno Pesavento bpesavento@infinito.it --- I had even worse delay problems on a laptop with slow disk (SATA-I) due to systemd flushing the system journal to disk just when Xorg is supposed to start. See if disabling journal to disk helps, writing "Storage=volatile" in /etc/systemd/journald.conf . Not a bug proper, just a wrong default setting not suited to laptops. In my case "Storage=auto" and "SystemMaxUse=160M" gave a workable journal with little collateral damage.

--- Comment #5 from Bernhard Wiedemann bwiedemann@suse.com --- so possibly a problem from the default journal config

--- Comment #8 from Sebastian Kuhne sebastiankuhne1@googlemail.com --- Created attachment 618561 --> http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/attachment.cgi?id=618561&action=edit boot.log

Additionally, I am attaching the boot.log file. Are there any more outputs required for analysis?

Nevertheless:

# rpm -q --qf '%{DESCRIPTION}\n' -f /usr/lib/systemd/system/wpa_supplicant.service wpa_supplicant is an implementation of the WPA Supplicant component, i.e., the part that runs in the client stations. It implements key negotiation with a WPA Authenticator and it controls the roaming and IEEE 802.11 authentication/association of the wlan driver.

OK, executed and attached, with udev_log="debug" and as root.

Unfortunately, the udev verbose log is still not visible in the logs. However, the problem is visible, after mounting swap and home, there is a delay of about 45s:

Strange are the lvm messages. It seems you don't have any lvm setup. Can you confirm this? If so, please edit /etc/lvm/lvm.conf and change the use_lvmetad parameter to:

use_lvmetad = 0

In addition, please deactivate the lvmetad socket via:

systemctl disable lvm2-lvmetad.socket

I have tried to reproduce the problem with the latest factory build (20150107) but couldn't see any of the above problems. So I would recommend that you update your test system to latest factory before you do the next tests.

If it still doesn't work with the above settings, please provide the output of journalctl -axb again (please keep udev_log="debug" in /etc/udev/udev.conf).

Hi Thomas, use_lvmetad = 0 was already activated.

I have executed "systemctl disable lvm2-lvmetad.socket", and the output of journalctl -axb attached (udev_log="debug").

Sorry for this issue. Many thanks for your help!

Best regards Sebastian
