Any advice is appreciated (is systemd to be blamed?)
Well, one thing you can do is... When the grub boot selection menu comes up you and hit
"e" to edit your boot parameters. Find the "linux" line for the
kernel you are booting and remove the "rhgb" and "quiet" from the line
and continue booting. Then you may be able to see where in the boot process things are
getting hung.
Another thing to consider is adding a 3 to the end of the line to boot into multi-user
mode. If that works fine...then you can try going into graphical mode manually to see
what happens.
Oh, and try not to make any "assumptions" on what could be causing the problem.
