And where the heck are the logs, they should be in the /var directory

now /dev/sda, last boot it was /dev/sdb, so much for UUID's. I have
not moved any cables. One is a 500G samsung 860 SSD, the other a 1t
Samsung 870 SSD.
An ls of /var/log:
gene@coyote:~$ ls /var/log
alternatives.log apache2 boot.log boot.log.2 boot.log.4 btmp
cups dpkg.log.1 faillog gdm3 journal private
runit sddm.log wtmp

btmp.1 dpkg.log exim4 fontconfig.log installer lastlog

So where are syslog and dmesg?
I take it you didn't bother to read ยง5.1.7 of the bookworm Release Notes.
Cheers,

Not yet David. I was forced to install bookworm after an update wiped
out the validity of my pw. So I went to another machine on my net and
downloaded and wrote a dvd with the bookworm netinstall. so at no time
was I presented with an opportunity to read the release notes. This to
me, is not a toy, And that's not the first time my pw has been
invalidated by an update. No root pw has ever been set since wheezy, so
I had no choice but to install either bookworm or wheezy as I seem to
have misslaid the diskj for the in betweens. I got the bookworm
net-installer by taking my portable dvd writer to the buster machine and
writing it there, then bring it back to install on this machine after I
had crawled under the table and unplugged al the drives but the one I
wanted to install to. They've since been plugged back in and the /home
partition on that raid10 is mounted on top of the almost empty /home on
the boot drive. Its all SSD's since the last 2 2t seacrates I bought
for buster, one for working room on /home, and one for amanda only ran a
few weeks, both just disappearing off the end of the cables with no
warning in the same d###### week. Since my main working sw on this
machine is much newer AppImages, they all live in /home/me/AppIages on
that raid. So when the raid10 was created, I had only 3 or 4 files for
backup, so I have about half of a 25 year collection of pix I was able
to recover from the amandatapes disk before it puked 3 days after the
new buster boot disk failed. At that point I didn't ever consider
warratying an obviously sold 6 months before the bugs were fixed for
shingled drives, so the next time it was powered up it had an 8 inch
stack of Samsung SSD's and no spinning rust. Every SSD including the
first 40 gig adak I ever bought is still working just fine in one of the
7 machines here.
Wheezy thru buster has been good to me, bullseye was troublesome but
fixable, now bookworm is a disaster. The applications I use daily act
like they don't have write perms to storage I own lock stock and barrel.
The logs I might use to troubleshoot this myself are gone, and you
want to know if I read the release notes? So I come here asking for
help with all the changes and catch it for not reading the notes i never
had the chance to read.
I don't have a place, nor the slot left for another controller, nor the
spare disks to save that raids data to while its being reformatted for
bookworm.
I ask how to do an fsck on it which might fix whatever changes bookworm
has done to ext4. One possibility is to comment that line that mounts it
out of fstab and reboot. But alluding to that before has been ignored.
Or if a 2T SSD is affordable, I do have a spare sata-iii socket left on
the mobo. And 2 empty sockets on the controller serving the raid10.
I see they've come down a ways for off brand stuff, so 3 2T's will be
here friday. I think I have, between the 2 controllers, each with 6
ports, enough empty sockets to setup a volume managed something, maybe
even another 2nd raid10.
So I should have a place to put the raids contents if a reformatting is
indicated.
