Auto restart when doing work

What do u mean by booting?

I mean i just press the power button and it boot to zorin os.
But during the boot there was something writter on the top left.
Let me see if i can get that.

This one

I will say that, before the bios update, it was taking 40-60 sec+ to boot to zorin, now less than 20

Doing it

Wow, and with the TSC clock fixed, performance will improve even more. Color me jealous.

On terminal doing this, and it said permission denied

I typed /etc/default/grub and hit enter

Install nautilus-admin:
sudo apt install nautilus-admin
nautilus -q

Then navigate to /etc/default/grub, right-click it, select "Edit as Administrator", enter your password (you might have to enter it twice... it's a bug), enter the TSC clock fix, save the file, then try rebooting.

Doing it

I did sudo nano /etc/default/grub and it opened, did this, check it

After you're rebooted, post the results of:

sudo systemd-analyze critical-chain

and:

sudo systemd-analyze blame

I'm betting there's services starting up that you don't need, and you could get the boot below 15 seconds.

Yes, now save the file (Write Out at the bottom), exit out of nano (I use gedit, it's much easier to use), then in terminal issue:
sudo update-grub
then reboot.

I haven't used Nano in awhile... I'm not sure if it's Ctrl+O or some other key combination to save the file.

And it should be Ctrl+X to exit.

After restart and entering -
sudo systemd-analyze critical-chain

If you're looking for faster boot up, and you don't need snap, you can uninstall all the snap packages (and install the .deb versions) and uninstall snap itself, but that's about twice as fast as my machine.

Did you do:
sudo update-grub

You should do that.

I don't know if i need snap or not, but i did the test, it took 16 sec to boot, which is i would say much much faster than previous

Forgot, did it now, and rebooting.

It took 14 sec

That's stupid-fast. Do you have the second memory stick in? That'll boost it a bit, too, what with memory interleaving.

Here's mine:

0 errors, 1 warn, 2 fails.

Huh, your TSC clock calibration is still failing. It shouldn't do that with the line in the grub file.

Be sure to run Zorin menu > System Tools > Software Updater, just to be sure everything's up to date.

Welp, I'm off to bed. I'll research the TSC clock issue tomorrow.
