I have exactly same problem with my thinkpad R51e and feisty fawn. The slow boot happens due to acpi stuff, in particular it takes ibm_acpi and battery modules ~20s and 1m to load respectively.

Current work around that I use is blacklisting them. To do this add

blacklist ibm_acpi
blacklist battery

to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
