Slow boot time with Linux Lite 5.0 - EstieMalka - 11-18-2020

Hello,
I am new both to the forums and a relative newb to Linux. I installed LL 5.0 on an older laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525, Intel Duo Core). I really like LL, but it was booting up very slowly (up to 3 minutes). I deleted LL, replaced it with Puppy Linux, but I'd rather have LL again (as the only distro --and only OS-- on my hard drive).

After searching the forum for a solution, I noticed that the release notes for 4.0 included a solution for this problem, as follows:

(From https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/release-announcements/linux-lite-4-0-final-released/)

Code:
sudo apt purge virtualbox*
sudo systemctl stop vboxadd.service
sudo systemctl stop vboxadd-service.service
sudo systemctl disable vboxadd.service
sudo systemctl disable vboxadd-service.service

Does this work with the 5.0 release to make it boot up more quickly?

Thanks!

Open a terminal, we'll need the output of both:

Code:
systemd-analyze blame

and

Code:
systemd-analyze critical-chain
