Not sure I would call this the same hang issue, but using the latest script, the installation of the latest NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-460.39.run driver "successfully" installs (without a script error), but on re-boot (even after a hard halt and re-start), I get a blinking cursor like you get when a new kernel is installed. Ran it again, and got the same result. The sgfxi log:

I can't modify the last post, but I meant to say at the end that installing the debian driver (460.39) with the script worked.

A driver failing is often caused by hardware incompatibility, you always want to show for such thinigs: inxi -bay at least so the chip data is available. the current stable nvidia in sgfxi is the same as the debian one, 460.39, so if that worked, it's not a hardware issue. I'mpossible to diagnose since there are no failure logs, though Xorg.0.log will show towards the end what failed to load, but that was almost certainly nvidia, so that won't be very enlightening.

What card model you have? It may be possible your card may not be exactly supported by the new driver.
