Hey everyone, I'm really confused here. I just switched from Windows 11 to a fresh install of Linux, specifically Bazzite, and my boot time has jumped to around 2 minutes, which seems extreme. I've tried using ChatGPT for some troubleshooting, and it mentioned something about initramfs. Any ideas on how I can speed this up?

Try disabling the "wait for network" service if you're using Bazzite. That can sometimes improve boot time significantly, similar to what I've seen in Fedora. You can do that with this command: `sudo systemctl disable NetworkManager-wait-online.service`. It might shave off 15-20 seconds for you!
First off, could you let us know if you're using an HDD or an SSD? Also, how much RAM do you have in your setup? That could help narrow things down.
I heard about that! But I think my system is hanging on some initramfs issue, and I'm not sure how to deal with that.
