If that file has very long lines, this is a known problem in Emacs 28
and older.  Should be much better in Emacs 29 and later.

Your build is with native-compilation, so I presume those several
Emacs jobs are compiling some Lisp files for which the corresponding
*.eln files were not yet produced, a one-time job (if you let those
jobs run to completion).  So this part is not a bug, AFAIU.

This is something triggered by your ~/.emacs init file, as evidenced
by this line:

     load("~/.emacs" noerror nomessage)

which says that Emacs is loading your init file.  It sounds like
something in your .emacs file tries to start Dired on the directory
"/mnt/chromeos/removable/SD/", which has some access problems?  You
need to investigate what goes wrong there.  Whether this is some
problem in Emacs or in how you configure and customize Emacs can only
be established once the problematic part(s) of your init file are
identified.
