There are one or two issues here. The second one at least shows a problem in the Nvidia kernel driver:

Using ctrl-alt-f2 to drop to a terminal and issuing "startx" completed the boot process. Installed NVidia 340 driver which crashed the current session and sent me to an endless GUI (sddm?) login loop where login immediately crashed back to the GUI login. Rebooting from the login screen worked as expected and system is running fine now.
