After installing Ubuntu 18.04 on my new Dell Laptop, I'm wondering wether it is possible to speed up the booting process. Here is some basic information:



systemd-analyze:



Startup finished in 3.879s (kernel) + 28.444s (userspace) = 32.323s
graphical.target reached after 28.001s in userspace

    I'd say 32 seconds is as good as it gets with Gnome3 and systemd. You could try to remove snaps and to disable services, but I am not sure you'd want it.

18.04 with no swap partition



There is a glitch where Ubuntu 18.04 is boots slow when there is no swap partition. To circumvent this edit /etc/default/grub and search for the line with LINUX and add noresume after quiet splash. It will look something like this:



GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash noresume"


Then save the file and run:



sudo update-grub

18.04 with no swap partition



There is a glitch where Ubuntu 18.04 is boots slow when there is no swap partition. To circumvent this edit /etc/default/grub and search for the line with LINUX and add noresume after quiet splash. It will look something like this:



GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash noresume"


Then save the file and run:



sudo update-grub
