OK, I've done that and uploaded the results to: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J3unPJIN-XNQwuwLZNsaPp7JqYH6M3YB?usp=sharing This is using Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-34-1.2.iso. There are three files: live-blame (output of systemd-analyze blame) live-boot.svg (output of systemd-analyze plot) live-journal (output of journal after logging into KDE) Clearly the 30-second delay is not happening. There is a 14-second delay due to usb-settle, but it doesn't hold up the boot process. (There's another delay is due to checking the MD5 checksum on the thumbdrive before the boot proper starts, and which I interrupted). poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
