Michael,
So what happens if you boot that system from a live CD / USB
thumbdrive?? A: does it boot? B: if it boots, can you get to the
files on the drive?
This situation is one reason I make sure to turn off the motherboard
splash screens that hide the boot process. At the moment, a log file
that would point out the system halt is not coming to mind.
Yes, LVM can make that exciting.

I have an Ubuntu 20.04 system that's not booting; appears to boot but
stops at a black screen. It was running fine till I ran (delayed)
updates; wasn't able to update for 7 weeks- a Kubuntu 20.04 system took
the delayed updates without problem.
On Fedora it seems I was easily able to roll back to a previous state
with updates gone awry. I believe I did an LVM install, but never fully
configured the whole snapshot thing.
The only "data" to retrieve is Chromium browser bookmarks which I'll
google how to do next. I'm ready to reinstall U20 if necessary, but if
there's an easier way, I'll take it. I want to set up either a Synology
NAS or separate Linux box running NFS to store future snapshots once I
get that process configured.
Thanks in advance (and past) for excellent input.
