Since my last comment my Lenovo E595 laptop has changed configuration slightly.

1. The BIOS has updated to v1.19.

2. I installed the "linux-image-generic-hwe-20.04-edge" package, which as I write is an early release of the upcoming HWE kernel from 20.04.2 (kernel v5.8).

With these updates in place I removed the "nomodeset" kernel boot parameter, and so far haven't seen a hang on boot in the past 2+ weeks. Like with the other kernels I tested I will keep an eye out for issues and update if I see anything.

Unlike @viperomega - I still have not experienced a hang outside of the boot process, with any of the kernels and boot parameters I've tried.
