Proxmox 6.3-2

I've been running this VM for months with no issues. Today, after an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, a reboot was required. I rebooted Ubuntu from the Ubuntu CLI and it never came back online. So I checked the console in Proxmox and I have a SeaBIOS boot loop with "No bootable devices" displaying.

Naturally, I'm in a bit of a panic.

My most recent VM backup which I restored yields the same result. The backup completed this morning at around 3AM and it's the only one I have.

I'm not certain of the course of action, and I don't want to hose the data in the VM. I didn't change any settings in Proxmox either...

The most important thing is that I'm able to get to and recover the data, which basically consists of the home folders of the virtual hosts configured in apache and the mysql databases.

Can anyone offer a suggestion?
