Is that a breakdown and your system booted in 14.5s or is that cumulative @ 2 minutes?
That's the head from 'systemd-analyze blame'. Boot takes over 2.4 minutes. 13.1 only takes about 1/3 of that on the adjacent identical size and type partition.
I really hope that is a breakdown, since systemd was supposed to be so much faster than sysVinit...those figures don't make sense...

what does your fstab contains exactly ? most of the time is being spent actually fsck'ing the partitions in question.
No need to fsck has become apparent, and certainly not for all possible mounts for every boot regardless of what was booted last. Actual fstab content is identical for 13.1 and 13.2, except for the mount points of the 13.1 & 13.2 partitions and exchange of 1 for 2 at ends of their lines, e.g.: LABEL=os131p20 / ext3 noatime,acl 1 1 LABEL=os132p21 /disks/suse132 ext3 noatime,acl 1 2 LABEL=os131p20 /disks/suse131 ext3 noatime,acl 1 2 LABEL=os132p21 / ext3 noatime,acl 1 1 Each's fstab has 11955 bytes in 150 lines, the vast majority of which are noauto network types nfs or cifs, but removing them all has no effect on boot time. LVM is not used. RAID is not used. Partitions existing number at least 30 on the two systems I'm currently aware of having this trouble. All natives on the two systems I'm currently aware of having this trouble are swap, ext2 or ext3. FAT, NTFS and/or HPFS partitions are present on both systems. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Have you thought about trying a file system that doesn't need an fsck step? I.e. if it is pausing in the fsck step now, but you tried booting from a partition that didn't need an fsck step, you could disable that step and see if skipping it entirely would speed up your boot. Perhaps it isn't the fsck step at all, but perhaps output is being buffered somewhere and the problem is in one of the steps immediately after the fsck, but isn't getting written to the log or console? Anyway, if fsck seems to be part of the problem -- then boot from a file system which doesn't need an fsck step. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

It seems to have nothing to do with the problem except for producing inexplicable entries in blame output. No fscking is apparent while watching boot proceed. Stripping all fstab lines except for / has no impact on boot time, and affects only 13.2, not 13.1, on the very same systems using the very same partitions and filesystems. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

What comes after fsck?... On my system it switches from runlevel-S to runlevel-3 and starts bringing up services. It also happens to be the point in my startup log that 'the kernel log daemon terminates and boot logging starts'... I've noticed some output overlaps at times between the boot log and the kernel log , but in my case, the kernel log catches all of the file-system mounts because the normal boot logging doesn't come up until the file systems are mounted. So... maybe you are seeing kernel log type output that catches the end of the fsck's, and ... (ignorance on my part here) -- is it journald that comes up to take over logging? Maybe it isn't logging anything to disk for some period of time during boot in order to speed up boot? i.e. writing a log to disk while loading lots of things, might be thought to be counter-productive if someone was trying to optimize disk reads during boot, but that's guessing on my part... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Doing that avoids the init delay entirely. :-p Instead of time landmarks >140., last time in resulting /var/log/messages is 49.389575. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

You have found a race condition then, the module loading hangs "sometimes" depending the phase of the moon. what kernel version are you using ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

32 bit desktop: 3.12.1-2.1 3.13.rc7-1.1 3.13.rc8-2.1.g7ce0a21 I tried a custom boot stanza to load the 13.1 kernel/initrd. There is no similar hang this way, but after about 50. or so it just keeps repeating welcome to emergency mode and several systemd-journal lines. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Sorry, I was apparently in the clouds when I replied to this thread and confused this post for another in the general list that asked for a problem related to a kernel module hanging and taking a long time to boot. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
