I've re-timed it and it actually takes 1m 55s to reach the splash screen then another 10 seconds to completion.
This is actually quite hard to debug without seeing the machine. Do you get any "interesting" stuff happening while it starts? Does running a monitor like gkrellm show anything interesting on its graphs while loading? Here, it's the bit after the splash appears that takes the time.
