All this is very strange - I put Ubuntu on a USB flash drive and tried it from one of the ports on the back of my test machine, and it booted fine. However, the machine did turn itself off, so I had to do it a second time.
Strange partition structure in Disk Utility though - Extended Partition - Partition 2 249GB, /dev/sda2, Partition 5, 249GB LUKS, Linux, LUKS Encryption Version 1.
Then when I ran sudo fsck -f /dev/sda2, I got "fsck from util-linux 2.32 e2fsck 1.44.4 (18-Aug-2018) fsck.ext2 Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sda2 Could this be a zero
ength partition?
And then I ran sudo fsck -f /dev/sda5, all I get it "fsck from until-linux 2.32" and nothing else.
I also noticed the clock says 09.51 instead of 10.51 (the time I am writing this!)
