Ok thanks. I had directly modified NetworkManager.conf setting level=DEBUG. I also modified wpa_supplicant as you advised; and I've attached the most recent journalctl and wpa_supplicant.log to the bug report. I really can't make heads or tails out of either. The debug info is really verbose. But maybe I can figure something out by comparing working and non-working boot debug outputs.
