Hi leszek
I did all your CLI steps ... TWICE [with a reboot / boot sequence in-between, of course]... but to my immense frustration, both times once back in my desktop via the reboot with recovery fsck option, this was my "reward":
Despite it saying no data, when i instead actually looked with Dolphin in /var/log/journal, there is ONE folder, ac93e735dce94061a9b2ff443759fe8f, holding a few files... but all the timestamps corresponded with the recovery boot not the standard boot.
I rechecked /etc/systemd/journald.conf & confirmed it DOES still have Storage=persistent.
Obviously because you went to all the trouble to guide me step by step you expected it to work, & as i copied & pasted [not typed] each command from your steps i made no typo errors... but it did not store persistent logs all the same. This is probably a stupid question, but does the recovery fsck boot option [currently the only way i can reliably get back to my desktop] somehow ignore the Storage=persistent setting?
