The second issue is that in my desktop machine, the kernel loading (before it probes for anything) took minutes. Several minutes. It was astonishing. This also happens in my virtual machines, IIRC.
I had slow kernel/initrd loading on 2-3 machines for over 2 years (maybe 3?), until about 2 weeks ago, reported here without response once or twice and also: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/grub-legacy-delay-o...
But I use Grub 2, not grub legacy. And, I use a separate /boot partition which is ext2, not ext4.
BIOS changes radically reduced the delays here.
If I recall correctly, my bios ahci settings are mislabeled, I had to try several rounds back in the time to get things working right. I would not like to touch those settings again. Besides that, it is the 42.3 install system which takes minutes to load, not the normal system. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
