Then there is a 5 minute pause where nothing appears to be happening, and then at the 321 second mark, dracut starts printing timeout messages.

Ok - I provided the attachment because people often want the full details rather than a summary. Next time I'll be sure to provide both.

I have a 4 GB RPi4 with an SD card. I think you are correct that it looks more like a storage issue.

Great. Thanks for checking. Here is the hardware data for my board:

Hardware : BCM2835
Revision : c03112
Serial : 100000004463a5a7
Model : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.2

Based on the revision-codes page [1], this would be the latest revision of the 4 GB RPi4 board.
