After rebooting several times it seems to have fixed itself. Still a mystery, since I did nothing to fix it.

I'm not very familiar with Ubuntu, but usually when Linux hangs during boot, if it's not a hardware issue, it's because it's having trouble getting to the Internet. If you are able to get online once it boots, check that you have at least two valid DNS servers listed in /etc/resolve.conf, and that the machine's IP address is listed in /etc/hosts.

Check the CD you used to do the install. Does it say 'Windows Vista' on it? Thank you. I'm here all week :).

Maybe it was running fsck (file system checking) on the disks.. it forces these every 30 boots or so.
I've yet to see a way to jump out of it when you want to log in quickly.
