Hmm, it looks like the multiuser startup is getting blocked on snapd:

This appears to be some kind of new package management system for
Ubuntu:
Description-en: Tool to interact with Ubuntu Core Snappy.
Install, configure, refresh and remove snap packages. Snaps are
'universal' packages that work across many different Linux systems,
enabling secure distribution of the latest apps and utilities for
cloud, servers, desktops and the internet of things.
Why it the Ubuntu package believes it needs to be fully started before
the login screen can display is unclear to me. It might be worth
using systemctl to disable snapd.serivce and see if that makes things
work better for you.
