  Where would those logfiles be?  "dmesg" starts off with...

[    0.000000] Linux version 5.10.27-gentoo (root@i3) (gcc (Gentoo 10.2.0-r5 
p6) 10.2.0, GNU ld (Gentoo 2.34 p6) 2.34.0) #1 SMP Mon Apr 19 20:56:52 EDT 2021

[    0.000000] BIOS-provided physical RAM map:

etc.  This has happened with various kernels.  Note that "Experimental"
is the latest kernel version.  "Production" is the previous working
kernel I've compiled.  It serves as a fallback in case I screw things up
on the "make menuconfig" step.  It also saved me years ago on the switch
from /dev/hdx to /dev/sdx.
