The last one comes back with "Access forbidden!".

Apparently, from your boot.log, something gets stuck trying to
configure network interfaces.  Why this is the case you are the one
in a position to investigate.

Either boot to a level 1, turn off whatever tries to configure eth0
and boot to a level 3, or go into an "interactive control of
services" mode and skip whatever gets stuck.  Once at a command line
try to bring up an offending service (or services) manually and
watch what goes haywire.

It is possible then that you bumped into some problems with systemd.
Quite likely it would be truly good to know what really went wrong.

X requires as a minimum at least properly configured loopback
network interface and a basic sanity of network parameters (in
particular if you require an outside network access to resolve a
host name then you are in trouble with a networking down).  In any
case do not worry about X before you can boot to a login prompt.
