First, how is your network configured on Circe? Systemd, NetworkManager,
manually... I suspect that your network connection isn't being activated
by the system during early boot: it's probably only being activated as
part of your user profile when you actually login. This would explain
why the system was timing out waiting to mount a NFS share if the
network wasn't up by that point.

Most likely some system files were changed by a recent Mint upgrade and
something, probably a systemd unit file dependency, has started calling
the startup sequence differently which is why the issue has only just
started manifesting.
