On further investigation, Arne's absolutely right. I upgraded the
kernel back to 4.9.88-1 from Debian Security and installed 'haveged'
(another random number generator). Everything started quickly and
normally after a reboot. Turns out I hadn't noticed this on any of my
other virtual servers becaus
I have also seen this on a couple of SSD-only systems.
I think the problem is that the random number generator takes about two
minutes to initialize, long enough for systemd to give up on these
processes. Unbound is similar, but there unit file keeps trying until
the random numbers are available.
