Ok, forget my comment for this issue. After leaving the system alone for a couple of minutes it had been started and it seems that the padlock issue wasn't the cause because after looking at syslog I saw that this message occurs everytime when booting but doesn't cause a delay. It rather seems to be a problem with ntp synching:

I'm really surprised that time server adjusting interrupts the whole boot process, but that's another issue... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779912 Title: modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.38-9-generic/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko): No such device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/779912/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
