I strongly suspect it's not hanging. It's likely just stopped doing
things. Flip over to tty2 and you should have a text login.

I suspect it has not even tried to start yet.
Do a "systemctl start prefdm.service" and you should have your normal
logins.
I suspect strongly this is simply the legacy non-LSB initscripts issue I
mentioned last week that is preventing the prefdm.service job from being
executed on boot.

That's likely because you do not have the microcode itself installed.
It's from a package in tainted so would not be installed by default.
