Long boot time on Manjaro

Hi,
I have a problem with long boot time. It lasts 1 min. 30 sec or more. Can someone help me with this? Thanks.

systemd-analyze output:

Bootup is not yet finished (org.freedesktop.systemd1.Manager.FinishTimestampMonotonic=0).
Please try again later.
Hint: Use 'systemctl list-jobs' to see active jobs

Well that seems to be taking forever and is not standard to a manjaro install…

It would appear that plymouth-quit-wait.service is the culprit. I would suggest… :arrow_down:

sudo systemctl disable --now plymouth-quit-wait.service

I know that is not happens only on Manjaro.

Thanks. I used this command, but after reboot nothing changed.

Then… uninstall Plymouth, maybe? :arrow_down:

sudo pacman -R plymouth
