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.

 

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?

I want the whole house to be automatically protected. Incl many smart home devices. So every device that connects to the router, is going through the vpn.

I had so much trouble setting up the router with vpn that i'd really rather not make big changes...

I want the easiest solution

 

I do have my own web server running centos 7 i could use. I am planning to buy a small mini-pc that will be running home assistant and frigate for recording my camera's and integrating AI detection into my smart home. It seems the best installation for that is debian.

I have a router that is using a wireguard vpn, that does not allow port forwarding, so i need an alternative to access the mini-pc.

Now, of course there's some things to be found when googling, but my preference goes to the most easy-to-use solution as i'm not great with linux, i just mess around digging through configs, copy-pasting instructions and getting stuff done that way. This is why I wanted to ask you guys for advice =)
