Well, no joy in Mudville.

I disabled Secure Boot by deleted the PK key, which did indeed result in
the motherboard BIOS recognizing that Secure Boot was disabled.  And, it
recognizes the NVMe drive as the boot device, indeed the only boot device,
which is good.

But ... despite all that, it still does not boot.  I tried it with CSM on
and CSM off, still no boot.  Efibootmgr this time *did* list the NVMe drive
as an EFI option (after the USB flash drive), but still no boot.  Tried it
with various options enabled and disabled, still no joy.

Damned if I can figure it out.  I feel like I'm getting closer ... but no
way forward seems obvious.  Any ideas?  Any reason to think that another
motherboard might be less difficult to get up and running?
