If I run this now, will I get anything useful ?
If you're in a normal boot, try:
journalctl -b -1 | grep failed
instead. s/-1/-2/ if you want to look at the 2nd previous boot. Either presume
Q4OS has persistent journaling enabled. Otherwise you'll get nothing useful.

I did see something about "plymouth" when
the pages of lines were
flashing by.
Plymouth for most users is nothing but bling, Windows emulation, covering up
boot messages with a GUI screen. Plymouth is actually useful or even required
for some configurations. I don't have it installed anywhere that allows it to be
removed.
