Please provide exact error messages. To get a more verbose boot you can
change the options in the grub boot loader and append
"systemd.log_level=debug".
If everything else fails, take a screenshot and attach the image.

Is this problem reproducible? Does it happen on every boot?

And how would this be related to systemd?

Are those packages really not installed or why is the version
