[Bug 847880] [NEW] Extremely slow boot - 3 minutes or more

[Neil Padgett]

Public bug reported:

My PC takes 3 minutes to boot since installing Beta 1.  During most of
the boot time, it seems to hang at the Ubuntu logo.  If I then press
Esc to get to verbose mode, I see a flashing cursor after the "starting
CUPS....OK" line.  This lasts for over 2 and a half minutes, after which
a few more lines flash by and I reach the login screen.
