Just a thought, and an obvious question perhaps. Have you set up whole-disk encryption? I still use 3.6 but in that version the system will appear to get stuck on the splash screen while it waits for the decryption password.
Also, someone may be able to answer this - is it possible to clear the splash screen, and does this then display messages about the boot process (did I read somewhere the ESC key does this)?

Don't worry about artificial intelligence. Worry about natural stupidity.
