Trouble upgrading from centos 7 to almalinux, where to get affordable help upgrading/migrating? (alien.top)

I tried to use the elevation upgrade script from almalinux, however it fails. it ends with the screenshot i attached, emergency mode. and I was then required to roll back a snapshot. My current host was so kind to take a look as well, also try to upgrade it themselfs, but they couldn't achieve it either on a quick try (i saw them through vnc also doing a drive repair)

I want to upgrade to almalinux 9 (through 8 then as required), so where does one get affordable and truthworthy help for these things, for the not-so-techy people like myself?

Start with /r/LinuxQuestiond maybe? This here definitely is the wrong place.

Thanks, there is also /r/sysadmin and probably more where to ask, but i figured this place would also make sense. Its about where to get paid help for upgrades etc.

/r/sysadmin is also a terrible choice but go ahead, good luck.
