Comment 44 for bug 1808183

I cannot confirm that 4.15.18-041518-generic works stable.
It did work for a while though..
Since a few days my boot is slow again and yesterday and today the system again got stuck in emergency mode because of too slow boot.
Thus I think there is more to it than just the kernel.
The only explanation I do have is that there is some dependency between the kernel and other packages which get updated when I run apt dist-upgrade.
I am also puzzled that my system boots very fast when I do a CTRL-ALT-DELETE when it is stuck in emergency mode.
So there is a difference between a warm start and a cold boot.
I suppose that there is some hardware initialization which is done too late during cold boot but makes the following warm start fast.
