The NVMe SSD in my desktop died a few days ago, while it was in use (as the sender of a send/receive incremental backup). It was only a few years old. It is completely lifeless.
Using an old (2015) SATA SSD, I restored from a backup, and with some adjustments to /etc/fstab and a few subvolume creations (for .cache and snapper snapshots) Kubuntu 26.04 is running, albeit more slowly.
But during the boot, before plasma starts there is a step that stalls for about 30 s:
(Those devices are those with btrfs on them, the last being the drive being booted.)
Can anyone explain this step? Removing the failed drive had no effect. Another install, a vanilla Kubuntu 26.04, on the same SSD does not have the problem.
