I am having a really slow boot on ubuntu 12.04.

Below is my dmesg log's major gaps:

[3.704928] EXT4-fs (sda6): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
[26.933486] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready

[62.734097] retire_capture_urb: 33 callbacks suppressed

And the entire log starting from the fist major jump:

I woudld run a fsck on SDA6, looks like it got mouted read only. This could be a sign that it found errors. If you boot into ubuntu successfully, then unmount SDA6 if possible and run a fsck on it. If you cannot unmount SDA6 because it's mounted at / or someother place that is essential then run a boot CD to do the fsck.
