Well, it took a little longer than I expected.  I booted the NAS box to
update my backups.  It booted just fine, couldn't login tho.  I usually
use ssh and meant to save the error but already cleared the Konsole. 
Force of habit.  My plan, reinstall the OS on the SSD and be done with
it.  It likely has a simple fix but it's either reinstall or target
practice.  O_o   Oh, it did this after I removed the old spinning rust
drive and mounted the SSD in its place.  Go figure.  If I had waited to
swap the hardware, it would have likely still worked fine.  It would
only fail after I bag up the spinning rust drive and put it on the
shelf.  ;-)  LOL 

Weird problem tho.
