Squeeze on the desktop takes ~15 seconds to boot.My jessie install also takes a long time to boot. A lot of it is because of attempts to start/stop/do something with COMRESET. Eventually, after a minute, the boot process 'gives up'. What is COMRESET? What does it do? can I get rid of these attempts?
A quick search of the internet leads me to https://askubuntu.com/questions/174137/should-i-be-concerned-about-comreset-errors-with-my-ssd which suggests that COMRESET is the kernel RESETing COMmunications with an ata device (a hard disk). If you have one message, such as the linked poster had, then it's probably not a problem. If you see a lot of them, then you may have a bad cable (or a bad hard disk, or a bad disk controller).
TIA for anticipated information/help.
