From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I tried to do that, and it couldn't find the journal package. So I tried to install it, but apt, flatpak, nor snap could find the package to install.
This was probably supposed to say "journalctl -xb"
Okay, that command works for me. The last line says that /etc/hosts:7: hostname "SuperSpruce_Iron_3900X" is not valid, ignoring.
Not sure if this is the root cause of your boot failure, but underscores in hostnames are not allowed.
A- Z
,0-9
and-
are the only allowed characters.
