The files you asked for follow later in this post.

The /var/log/boot file is strange in that it has only entries for Feb.
14.  Did you intend to ask for /var/log/bootstrap?  That one has a lot
of entries about pre-dependency problems.

I have also examined the Dmesg log at Peter Garrett's suggestion and
have found some strange (at least strange to me) happenings.  I have
identified 2 minutes and 18 seconds of unexplained delays. 

The files that you wanted to sww follow:

/var/log/boot
