[[UPDATE]]: The fix was as 'simple' as going into the 'bios', and selecting 'add a boot option', which automatically came up with the correct EFI file/path, then putting it at the top of the boot order. 'Simple' it wasn't, many new and temporary instances brought online while digging my way through it all, and finally just going with a brand new Debian Bookworm and migrating my data over from the old disk file. At least I learned a lot about recovering from this weird circumstance. The incorrect EFI file/path must be an artifact of using netboot.xyz to install Deb Bookworm over a previously provisioned Ubuntu instance. Makes sense I guess. Still loving netboot.xyz as a super fast way to spin up an unsupported OS.
