Hi,
one small information regarding NTP sync time during boot. We have seem this behavior quit often in the past couple of weeks. Currently it’s not clear where it come from. but it’s not related to software installation/removal.
There is already a topic open where the NTP Sync during boot is discussed:
https://dietpi.com/forum/t/dietpi-boot-service-taking-40-seconds-on-rpi3b-and-pinea64/3772/1
There are a couple of thinks that could help to improve the situation:
- Set IP address to STATIC
- change NTP server to local GateWay (if supported)
- switch off NTP time sync if system is operated without valid network connection
However there is no grantee. For some user it improve the situation. For some not.
