Hi Jane. It would be helpful if you could open a new bug report with

apport-bug upstart

And then mention it here. This bug is basically "fixed" for precise, so
if it comes back in the same form, that would be a new regression bug.
Apport-bug will give us some information about your system that should
help us debug the possible reasons why you're still seeing this timeout
message.

Bug description:
  SRU justification: any delays in running the rc-sysinit script cause a
  spurious message to appear on the plymouth boot splash saying that the
  boot is waiting for the network to become available when it really
  isn't.  This is confusing and misleading to users.

  At bootup, while displaying the Ubutu logo, it says waiting for
  network configuration. Then it says: "Waiting up to 60 more seconds
  for network configuration", but seems to be stuck until enter key is
  pressed. Out of the syslog file it seems like it tries to start the
  wireless network already at bootup, but fails since the key to the
  network is only available in my user account after logging in.
