I’ve recently been doing a lot of tests that have required changing the
GRUB2 boot configuration via YaST. I got the impression that the final
step “install boot loader” was a lot slower than I remembered from 13.1
but thought that perhaps my memory was playing tricks. I’ve since had
to extend these configuration experiments to 13.1 and found that my
memory wasn’t playing me false.
The “install boot loader” step takes 15-20 seconds in 13.1 but, for an
identical installation on the same machine, at least 80 seconds in 13.2.
Why is this step taking about 5 times longer than before?
