Suddenly very slow to start

[David Fawcett]

Hey Dave,

Do you have an external USB hard drive plugged into the machine?

If so can you try unplugging it and rebooting to see if it still
starts up slowly?

If not can you please open the termal and type: lsusb

And please copy and paste the results?
