22.04 boot freeze on ASUS Expertbook B9450FA

[Kurt Miller]

After upgrade to 22.04 machine freezes at boot.
Booting is possible in recovery mode.
If I do not select recovery, machine silently hangs.

Steps I've taken:

1) added acpi=off to the kernel params.
   ACPI errors were visible scrolling past

1) Created and ran a boot-repair disk.
   The only effect was to reduce the amount of visual feedback during the boot process.

2) Successfully upgraded the BIOS
   Current BIOS: B9450FA.313
