   Thanks for the suggestions.  Spending a while looking about the system   
   showed there was no linux-image-xxxx package installed.  I don't know   
   how that actually happened but it would explain why the kernel was not   
   being updated. The kernel would be the files from bullseye I'm assuming.   
   I had a few half-hearted attempts to try to install the   
   linux-image-6.1.xx package that the currently installed kernel came from   
   but I got errors each time I tried.   
      
   So... I took the MS way out and blitzed it with the latest image and   
   installed on a new card. A bit of headless setup fun and then checking   
   in an A+ with a serial console and a Wifi dongle meant I could confirm   
   everything was working. SDcard into the Pi Zero, booted up and auto   
   connected to the Wifi. Followed by apt update/upgrade, copy some files   
   from the old card, install fail2ban, make the wear reducing changes and   
   we're back in business.   
      
   I've kept the old card so I may try seeing I can can fix the borked   
   install and get it to update. I feel I'd understand things better that   
   way. I don't know if this was the result of doing an in-place update   
   from bullseye to bookworm.   
      
   Thanks for the comments.
