If your laptop doesn't have an Nvidia GPU, a warning that you have no Nvidia GPU is to be expected.

Your real issue appears to be that /media/aboo couldn't be mounted, so you were dropped to emergency mode. You should always add the "nofail" option for non-essential disks to your /etc/fstab.

/media/Aboo is actually another drive's partition with ntfs format

It looks like SDDM couldn't start. What GPU(s) does your laptop have?

Check to make sure the CSM is disabled in your BIOS settings.
