As an additional NOTE to help ... I believe the problem was due to a failing SSD drive. Due to the fact more recently i received this Error after nogo on boot --- "Failed to Read or Write outside HD0".
I looked up when I installed this SSD and it had been 10 years. So if it can't read the drive .... Replace it! I did, and did a fresh install of v22.04. It worked flawlessly ... for one day!
