I experienced a problem similar to this on a clean install, but since
the system finally booted, after checking for sata drives about 4 times
for each possible location, I thought maybe it was just being overly
thorough.
I do recall that the delay starts with the message:
COMRESET failed (error=1009)
I jotted it down because at first I thought it was not going to boot.
