fixed by @skullgiver : it was an entry in /etc/crypttab.
Thanks for all the help everyone. This was an awesome experience.
I don’t know how stupid this was to do but many articles suggested it should be fine.
I resized my mouted root partition. Showed a bunch of warnings on resizing a mounted drive but it worked. Also did a sudo resize2fs /dev/sdaX to complete it.
Went from: winEFI, Win11, EFI, root, swap, data1, data2, win-recovery
To : winEFI, Win11, EFI, root, new-data1, win-recovery
But now every boot takes an additional 60-90 seconds with a blank screen. Pressing ESC shows the above log.
I am unsure of how to fix this or even what caused this. The root partition still starts from the same and only grew to right. Is this because of the deleted swap ?
The operations were performed via GParted but I followed this : https://askubuntu.com/questions/24027/how-can-i-resize-an-ext-root-partition-at-runtime
PS: Pop 22.04 Nvidia. Relatively fresh (~3mo) install but severely miscalculated how much size I needed.

Tried checking for systemd-boot config file to look for
resume=.This is the most relevant config file I found and didn’t find resume on it. Am I looking at the right place ?

Didn’t get it subsequent boots.

Ran that command and rebooted. Still have the delay.

This fixed it. Commented the
crypttabentry and no more wait on boot. Thanks for your time and the clear instructions to follow. Much appreciated.
