To be sure, I also tested with a larger timeout of 15min. The system
came up as expected.

The output of "systemctl list-jobs", "systemctl --failed", and
"journalctl -alb" might a good start, in case you still have access to

If not, it would be great to know how this problem can be reproduced so
I can gather that data myself.
