Waiting for udev uevents to be processed

Hey guys, my computer is staying at "waiting for udev uevents to be processed" for a while at boot, it still loads up but its taking way longer than usual. Something must be wrong, but I do not know where to check. What logs can I give you guys? I looked through dmesg and didn't see anything out of the ordinary but maybe I missed something

Did you change hardware recently by any chance?

a chkdsk run for you partitions might be in order to ensure no errors and double check /etc/fstab for any partitions listed there that arent in use presently, esp a swapfile or zram or something like that also.

changing kernels seems to have solved this, weird
You should try to debug the issue following the procedure from the linked Superuser answer. Using the kernel you had the issue with, set
Code: [Select]
udev_log="err"
in /etc/udev/udev.conf, then rebuild the initrd as indicated in that file by issuing
Code: [Select]
mkinitcpio -p linux
as root, then reboot the system. Afterwards, look in /var/log for the log file and paste it to some paste service. In s6, the exact log location is /var/log/udevd/current, in 66 /run/66/log/udevd/current, under other inits it will be different.
