Nothing else behind this note.
The system boots completely after 4-7 minutes, but only if ethernet is unplugged.
If ethernet is plugged in, the system starts within 1 minute.

Hi Julian,

This is happening because when your ethernet is unplugged, linux is still looking for your ethernet, and so keeps checking for five minutes, and then times out and allows bootup to continue.

You need to edit the /etc/networking/interfaces, and add the line

allow-hotplug eth0

to it. This tells the network manager the ethernet can be plugged in at any time... and isn't required at bootup.

Edit: refer to post #4 where I correct myself Wink
