Hello,
Today I rebooted my Pi and almost every service stopped working.
No idea what is causing all of this.

Hi,
looks like you re missing some files and file systems. Do you use an external HDD/SDD?
```nohighlight
error: unable to stat() /var/log/proftpd: No such file or directory
bazarr.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning /usr/bin/python3: No such file or directory
```
as well some more errors on proftp
```nohighlight
error: unable to bind to local socket: Address already in use
```

Then it has be the external ssd enclosure that is making problems.
Ended up switching to internal.

Well the issue was actually with the SSD so I switched it and reinstalled dietpi.
