Stuck at blinking cursor after reboot (Ubuntu 20 LTS)
Hi,
It seems that the system is failing to boot even into grub after running the Ubuntu 20LTS script. As there was already a system installed, I had to disable the already active raid using mdadm --stop --scan
(perhaps that's where it's going wrong?)

Hey, I had this issue too and discovered that with certain motherboards, if you change the boot order of the NVMe drives in the BIOS it will fix it. In the "Boot" section of ASRock motherboards, you can go to "Hard Drive BBS Properties" and just switch the two NVMe drives around. It fixed the issue so far on three servers for me.
I had this happen too on one of my servers and my answer was to secure erase the nvme drives from recovery, behaved after that.
nvme format -s 1 /dev/nvme0n1
nvme format -s 1 /dev/nvme1n1
