Perfect.

Thank you very much, especially for the commands you posted.

Now the boot-time takes 32 seconds only.
Since I have no SSD but old fashioned HDD, I consider this as very fast according to the other light distros I am used to.

Thanks to the Linux Lite team for the distro.
I like very much what I see.

Linux Lite 4.0 needs about 70 seconds to boot  (from grub-entry to login-screen).
How can I accelerate it ?

As you can see from your terminal output, your vbox.service is taking up a huge amount of boot-time.
Do you need virtual machines to run on your PC? If you don't then delete vbox.service. This has come up a few times already,
but here is the solution - it should speed up things very significantly for you:

Code: [Select]
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
 
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung netbook) installed in Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work

Other distros on my PC need about 25 to 32 seconds.
antix 25 seconds,  linux-mint19xfce 32 seconds,  peppermint9 32 seconds.

Just a comment.  Lite 3.8 since 2.0 on an older hdd. 4 years, fantastic, no problems.  I mean 0 problems.  Lite 4 on ssd has some issues. Make breakfast while waiting for boot. VB purge a no go.  All good though.  3.8 on my main hdd just moves along.  Thanks to all of the developers.  I have no plans to abandon this ship. It has served me too well.  An aside, 1st linux was 2.0 on a Dell 32bit from 2003.  That is why Windows is in my rear view mirror.
