Boot hangup while loading ntspec.service

After installing the KDE plasma desktop, my the screen blinks a couple times when it gets to network time service. In the lines leading up to that, it also fails to load some network .bin files. I have included a photo of the screen from my phone.

ETA: this is after installing KDE Plasma. I can’t even get to the login screen to try it out!

Is this something I will need to do a system image rescue on an SD card to fix?
