It sounds like something required wasn't ready, and caused boot to get dropped at emergency.target. By the time you control-D to continue, the require thing is ready so boot continued. Speculation. Anyway, if you can locate /run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt and post it somewhere, that'd be useful at figuring out what the problem is.
