Mint 21.3 long boot screen

[deep bluff]

Hy to all, i need some advise. I'm a basic/noob user of Linux. Some times ago i installed on a old notebook Mint in order not to trash the machine duo a really basic/office/internet usage. All worked fast and fine, but after some last update (can't tell which) the start/boot screen (after bios loading and before linux logo) seems hanging on (black screen) several minut and I'm sure it wasn't so long before. After that, Mint starts normal and on screen i have no error or strange message. Is there something i can test or check? Ty!

1)Run systemd-analyze blame in the terminal to see which service is slowing down the boot.
2)Use sudo systemctl disable <service-name> if any service is taking too long.
3)Run sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX (replace X with your disk letter) to check for issues.
4)Run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade and sudo apt autoremove to remove unused packages.

Hope this helps!

Point4: done all step but no improvment.

Point3: used the "smart" function under disk/partition to make test and all seem ok (i'm on ssd internal drive).

Point1: disabled gpu and network service, no better.

Hey there, run

systemd-analyze

after a reboot and see how long the last boot took and which part taking too long (firmware, kernel, userspace)

Hy! Here It Is:

it says your boot took 12 seconds, that's fast

Ok! To be honest i didn't exactly remember how long it tooks previusly (to me seems long) because i didn't used all the comand you and @hazy orbit suggested to me. So i suppose that all is and works fine enough.

Thank you both for helping me and sorry if i asked something really stupid, but i'm totally without any kind of competence on linux.

Have good time!
