Here is the link to the logs generated: EOS Log Tool link Systemd waits 1 min 30 s to try to do some journal flushing, fails and then does not setup my swap. I am also spammed in the tty terminal with a ton of systemd-journal info.
Can you show us your fstab?
fstab is in the linked Log’s:

please show us the results from the following commands:
sudo fdisk -l
ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
Looking at your log, all the way at the bottom:

There doesn’t seem to be any /dev/sda3 on your disk to be set up as swap as it shows in your fstab posted in the previous post.
Here is my fstab:

/dev/sda2 is formatted as a btrfs partitition, with multiple (pools?/slices?) setup inside it as one is swap or at least it said so during install it created.
The installation doesn’t create a swap by default. You must have created one on your own.
If I remember correctly, btrfs subvolume can be used as swap but with care.

It doesn’t look so judging by the entry in the fstab which seems to point to a partition:
# /dev/sda3 LABEL=SWAP
UUID=293ef9d4-bacd-49ec-a0e6-e701762a2b8b none swap defaults 0 0
which againn judging by the output of the fdisk -l doesn’t seem to be existent on the disk.
Something else I see:
and then:
Also in your fstab
… and different UUIDs.
Not sure what is going on with your setup ![]()
Hardware info shows /dev/sda
Partition:
ID-1: / size: 124.8 GiB used: 2.93 GiB (2.3%) fs: btrfs dev: /dev/sda2
ID-2: /boot size: 199.8 MiB used: 51.2 MiB (25.6%) fs: vfat dev: /dev/sda1

ID-4: /var/log size: 124.8 GiB used: 2.93 GiB (2.3%) fs: btrfs dev: /dev/sda2
Swap:
Alert: No swap data was found.
Fstab shows /dev/sdb? Except it’s showing /dev/sda3 as swap. Hardware info shows no swap! This is messed up.
So, I found out why the ARM install script is doing this. I am running the install script in a VirtualBox Endeavour OS VM. For whatever reason when genfstab is run in the script it is seeing the SWAP partition inside this VM and adding it into the fstab of the thumb drive. So, I will need to either A) delete the SWAP line from my fstab or B) resize the btrfs partition to give space for a swap or C) create a btrfs swap slice. Thanks for all of the help!
