That line in /etc/fstab matches the time-out message when booting due to
a swap area with that UUID not being found.

The only swap-type partition is /dev/sda4, not the /dev/sda2 mentioned
in /etc/fstab's comment above.
So two choices to improve things are
- Edit /etc/fstab and change
830fffc7-e2cb-4b0a-b7fa-1b65198ce0c5
to
66b0460e-9393-4743-a751-787c8108c4f0
- Alter /dev/sda4's UUID to be the value in /etc/fstab.
I won't say how because the other method has less chance of
severely breaking things if a mistake is made. :-)
To do the first suggestion, paste these lines.
old=UUID=830fffc7-e2cb-4b0a-b7fa-1b65198ce0c5
new=UUID=66b0460e-9393-4743-a751-787c8108c4f0
sudo -i sed -i.$(/bin/date -Is) "s/^$old/$new/" /etc/fstab
This command that you ran before should now show the new UUID in place.
grep -w swap /etc/fstab
Reboot and judge if booting is quicker. Once booted, capture the output
of these commands and tell us the URL.
