Locked out after update

If you could detail your process step by step, option chosen. it may help..
When installing do you choose to update? etc etc

Each time I tell installation to totally format the drive. It always finds the previous failed install.
It seems it always fails with that progress bar about 3/4 the way along, it's quite far into the process.
I don't remember exactly what it says it's doing, maybe 'copying files' it's unattended.
I just get a black box that says 'fatal error'.

The first time I tried to install I did choose to update etc. as it installs, all following tries I didn't bother.

As you can see from my previous post, I tried just about everything. More than half dozen attempts.
Only thing left really is DL a different distro, but my connection is rural I don't relish a multi-gigabyte DL.

I really think there's a HW issue and that's why it initially failed to boot.
The VM issue, no clue what's going on there, but I have updated the 5.4 machine at least once with
Virtualbox 6.1.22 without issue but suspect it may still be some conflict with that?
