Swap causing very slow boot (and systemd says the swap partition became active after 500k years)
Swap causing very slow boot (and systemd says the swap partition became active after 500k years)
I'm dualbooting Fedora Kinoite (ublue-nvidia image) with Windows 11 and I have a boot time of over 1 minute (only on the Fedora side).
The output of systemd-analyze critical-chain
is:

First of all, I would like to know what the hell is going on with that 584542 years active time lol
Anyway, the x2dadb07819a7b1
UUID belongs to the swap partition.

What should I do?

Just speculation on my end but it could be because you've got an encrypted home partition on a different partition of the same physical device. If you've got enough RAM and ZRAM for swap, why not try disabling the swap partition entirely?
