I would need the one from running rpi at the point your XBMC don't start and you get console. you can remove "splash" from cmdline.txt. and you can take picture from actual screen. there should be at least some info.

btw: when you are waiting and nothing happens, at the time RPI closes splash and opens console login prompt, this is failsafe process activated. as it is opening the console, it should also try to force start network (eth0) and ssh. timer for failsafe to kick in is 100s from boot.

then you should be to access it remotely,

now after a long delay,i can login via ssh on the pi, but , on tv the screen remain black.here are content of upstart-ev.log:
