Hello Everyone,

I have an old laptop with these specs:

  • CPU:Intel Core 2 Duo T5670 @1.80GHz
  • RAM: 2 GB
  • Motherboard: HP F.0A/30D8
  • HDD: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20L

I’ve installed Lubuntu 18.04.5 and it works well. The only problem is the boot that takes more than 40 second when I turn ON the PC.

Do you have any suggestion to speed up the boot?

Thanks

    Replacing the harddrive with an inexpensive solid state drive will do the most to speed up the computer, but you should also prepare to upgrade to a newer laptop in a year or two.

    Have you checked your bios settings for boot options? On mine I have 3 different options: fast boot, thorough and auto along with a couple for delays.
