my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
This is video of my computer starting Up. on Start up, I just pressed the start button and let it go. I started recording just as it came off grub and started loading Linux. This a video of my computer and how it loads Linux Mint 18.2 Sonya Cinnamon. The Computer also has Windows 7 Pro, available from Grub. It is an ASUS P6P87 MB with and Intel I7 CPU, 16 GB RAM, 4 TB Hard Drives over 4 - 1 TB drives and 2 Graphics cards hooked by SLI

Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
Just a thought here:have you tried booting it up with only the drive that has Linux it hooked up?
Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
There's a program you can install that records how long each step of the boot process takes, and writes it to a file in your home directory. But for the life of me, I can't remember the name of it. Somebody here will know.

Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
The boot sequence shows lot of errors from drive sdb, that's an hardware issue.

Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
Your fstab is trying to mount /dev/sda5 as a swap partition, but no such partition exists. That is why there is a delay.
Open the file in your text editor,
and put a # in front of that line:
# UUID=6d1ed0d2-b428-4fa4-bd5b-7252dd783337 none swap sw 0 0

Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
I myself wonder what went wrong with the Network Manager. On OP's machine, it takes over 9s to load with 18.2. On my over 7s with 18.1, whereas booting kernel and userspace was taking 5-6s on aggregate just a few days back???

Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
Each un-mountable disk (e.g. /dev/sda5) will add 1.5 minutes to the boot time, but OP also has the "every process listed in "blame" takes 10 to 20 times as long to start as it should" syndrome, which I see in this forum pretty often, but have never seen a solution to, except to not use 18.x. (but that doesn't mean there isn't a different solution!)ColdBootII wrote:...Network Manager. On OP's machine, it takes over 9s to load
Edit:
OP, comment out the "swap" line in /etc/fstab and disconnect your other drives; then see how it boots.
Please edit your original post title to include [SOLVED] if/when it is solved!

Apologies, I didn't mean to hijack the thread, just couldn't help commenting what I've seen in OP's figures.Flemur wrote:Each un-mountable disk (e.g. /dev/sda5) will add 1.5 minutes to the boot time, but OP also has the "every process listed in "blame" takes 10 to 20 times as long to start as it should" syndrome, which I see in this forum pretty often, but have never seen a solution to, except to not use 18.x.

For, what it's worth, if this was an upgrade from 18.1 done for upgrade's sake purely, I would consider downgrading back to the previous version whatever it was.
Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
Even as I type this, I am uploading a video to Youtube I shot this morning, with my Video Camera mounted on Tripod this time when I started up the Machine I will post a Link to it once it up there and viewable. But one more question to ask, does anybody else's computer start up similar?
Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
Here is new more steady Video. What I have in my Computer box is 3 1 TB Hard drives, no Raid , no need for it. I have 2 External drives, one I have to figure out what is wrong with it and this one I cannot mount

Re: my Computer start up - over 7 minutes
I hesitate to butt in here but you mentioned in another topic that you dual boot with win7, do you have any quick start feature turned off in windows?
Also your swap partition has changed since you installed Mint, lsblk says its on sdb6 but fstab says it was installed on sdb5, with the wrong uuid.
I would disconnect any external devices for testing, fix /etc/fstab's swap uuid to match the swap uuid from lsblk, and try booting again.
