After bootup you can try: # systemd-analyze blame to get an idea of which service might be causing the issue but be careful, this is wall time not actual daemon startup time so it can be misleading. Or try: # systemd-analyze plot > startup.png to get a graphical representation. Richard

When the GUI came up, I've checked for that file and it was somehow automatically recreated by some process (not sure which one). This may be the problem. I am not sure why that file is recreated and how to stop that recreation. On my system, SELinux is disabled by setting SELINUX=disabled in /etc/selinux/config but there still may be some processes which, perhaps, ignore my preference...
