Sometimes gets stuck and won't complete boot

Hi,
I'm on a fully updated Arch/XFCE laptop.
I reboot daily, yet, about half of the times, Arch gets stuck in mid boot process.
Below are parts of journal in both cases.

Please advise!
Thanks

Re: Sometimes gets stuck and won't complete boot

Hello,
I have similiar problems. Here are my last 2 stuck boots.

https://paste.archlinux.de/fpyXcO/

I also can't list all boots via journalctl due to: "Failed to determine boots: No data available"
