10 minute Long Boot Time?

This might help with those long boot times. Flip done timed out - May 26, 2018 -

I should’a made a note of this when it first happened on 16.04. Same fix - add video=SVIDEO-1:d in grub. See -

And also see -

From the first Askubuntu post: This is a bug. To avoid delay you can use a workaround. From your terminal run:

sudo pluma /etc/default/grub

Then add the kernel boot parameter: video=SVIDEO-1:d, so it will look like this:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=SVIDEO-1:d"

Then

sudo update-grub
sudo reboot

No more flip done timed out messages, drastically shorter boot times.
