fedora slow boot

[allan_r]

Fedora seem to be taking some time to boot, it pauses for awhile on :
"Daemon for monitoring attached scanners....."
Is there a srevice I can disabe to stop this?

Thanks.

systemctl disable colord-sane.service

I tried that, it still get run at boot up.

Run as root:

systemd-analyze blame

That gives you a list of services started at boot and how long they take to complete. If you see some services you don't need then you can disable them either with systemctl disable <serviceName>, or systemctl mask <serviceName>. If you use the mask option then the service will be symlinked to /dev/null, which makes it impossible for fedora to use it

The biggest ones seem to be home-allan-server.mount and home-allan-storage.mount. I'm not sure what those do, so you can run 'systemctl status <name.service> to get their description. If you do not have an LVM or RAID setup then you can disable these services:
fedora-storage-init.service
fedora-storage-init-late.service
lvm2-monitor.service

You can also disable iscsi.service if you don't boot from a network.

It was my NFS mounts that was causing the delay, I'm gonna take a look at my mount options and see why.
My NFS server is down right now so it will be a few days before I can check it out, but will let you know what I find if any.
