For the benefit of anyone else who might encounter something like this, what was the "obscure setting" in the BIOS that you needed to change and what value did you need to set it to?

For reinstallation, it sounds like you need to access the Dell boot menu in order to get the machine to boot from your installation media (USB or DVD) rather than GRUB which goes to the failed installation.
Search the internet for your model name/number and the words 'boot menu' for specific instructions.
It may be that tapping at the F12 key just after power on is the method.
Other common keys to try are 'Esc' or F2

What was your install process?
How many OS are installed just LL5 and LL6 or windows too..
Sounds like an UEFI bios, make sure boot loader resides on that same partition...
If its moved, or such have you tried going into ur bios/uefi and ensure Ubuntu (LL) is the 1st boot.
If its not set it as 1st and try to boot - see which LL boots or if prompts if only one... we can update grub to look for others.

Thanks to stevef and WytWun but still no success except that I learned LinuxLite6.2 is on hd0,gpt2 . I tried the guidance from both. So I am at the point of having to re-install. Hence my naiive question. How can I do that when my install USB for 6.2 and my former one for 5.4 (which worked for that series) always end with the grub>
I had gotten to like Linux Lite and would hate to give up on it. Please help.
