Many thanks for these suggestions, which gave me great hope.
I restarted with a fresh install of 22.04.1 and followed your instructions
to the letter, firmware etc included. All seemed to work with no
significant errors (if we ignore some compilation warnings).
However, on reboot, I got the same issue as before: after the grub menu, a
black and unresponsive screen.

In resonse to Stinga who wrote while I was doing the above: no, CTRL-ALT-F1
or 2 or 3 does not give me a console. It's all solidly frozen
unfortunately. I can't get a console. Best I can do to attempt a rescue is
boot with the installer USB stick and mount the file system if I want to
inspect or change any of the boot files.

Before the latest wipe and reinstall I had also tried
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair but it didn't do any good.
