Please, share your "system information" with us, as explained step by step here: How to post your Linux Mint System Information (inxi report).

Also share the terminal output, which the command systemd-analyze will display, with us.

Or rather, please not that one, lest we need to sit through another round of people advising to disable NetworkManager-wait-online due to misunderstanding what that command displays. This subject basically always is e.g. misconfigured swap and total time tends to be all that's needed to diagnose it.

90s is the exact timeout for a missing swap partition or file system; 30s is or was the timeout for a bad RESUME= setting in the initramfs configuration (which in the case of missing swap adds). Weigh against "normal" which on his old system with the spinner probably means somewhere between 40s and 60s and launched let educated guesses be. Non such guesses available however without indication of what OP considers to be "very long". Admittedly if he's talking about 30 minutes we may need to do some further probing but until then...

I know, done it myself and one of the usual suspects.

I have just installed a couple LM19 on SSDs and, man, they fly!

They are already very reasonably priced and will use them any time I do a new install although I will keep my present HDDs for now until I reinstall.
Please do not use animated GIFs in avatars because many of us find them distracting and obnoxious. Thank you.
