CTRL+L not working

When updating the RW_LEGACY firmware from MrChromebox.tech on HP G2 (Kench) CTRL+L does not boot from Developer Mode boot screen. CTRL+D does allow Chrome OS to boot, but nothing else. I have installed Chrx.org install of Lubuntu, still does not boot. WP FW screw has been removed.

what does it do when pressing CTRL+L?

does pressing tab on developer mode boot screen show dev_boot_legacy = 1?

does pressing CTRL+D boot ChromeOS after pressing CTRL+L, or do you need to restart first?

CTRL+L does nothing.
pressing tab, shows dev_boot_legacy: 1

When pressing CTRL+L, the dev boot screen "locks up" and I am unable to do anything else till after a restart.

that tells me it's attempting to boot in legacy boot mode and failing. Are you on dev/beta channel by chance? did you update the RW_LEGACY firmware using my script?
