Is this the right place to ask for help? Or is there another place? Anyways, feel free to delete this post if i’m in the wrong spot.

I use Pop OS on an Asus. Something has happened where i either have a 10 min plus boot time, or it doesn’t boot at all. I have reinstalled Pop OS twice (and used recovery mode) and even took it into a computer shop to see if there was something wrong with my hardware (there isn’t). When I first do a new install it will restart fine, but then it’ll be the next day when it will either take over 8 minutes to load, or it will be stuck on boot.

Right now it is stuck on boot. I can get into a live usb stick just fine. I have done systemanalyze blame, and it didn’t give me any helpful information. I have the same issue even if I try to press space bar and boot into an old kernel.

I should note that my computer has encryption enabled.

Any help would be awesome.

All hail the other linux noobs out there!

    Sorry I’m a total novice, what would have been the better way to share my log aside from copy and pasting?

      no worries, i gave a suggestion in my comment:

      journalctl -b0 -p4 | curl -s -F "content=<-" https://dpaste.com/api/v2/
      

      that captures the output from journalctl -b0 -p4 and sends it to dpaste.com. it will print out a URL to the result. give that a try
