If you don't have a working DHCP server, then indeed with "auto eth0" it
will wait for the dhclient binary to time out, which can be a long time.
If your setup doesn't require a network to be available before starting
other daemons, then I suggest using "allow-hotplug eth0" instead of
"auto eth0". With allow-hotplug, ifupdown runs in the background
whenever udev detects eth0, and will not block systemd from booting.
