This is reasonably valid. I think Windows makes it a bit harder to do real damage to your system, so I’m used to that. I also have borked installs in VMs before, but that’s never mattered because spinning up a new one takes no time. Definitely a valuable lesson to do more research before running commands, especially as sudo
Thank you for the offer. I hope I never need to take advantage of it lol
This is why I gave up on fixing it yesterday lol. I spent a few days setting it up, I didn’t wanna spend a few more days to try to figure out exactly what the issue was when I could just give in and then actually use it
I think I know what the issue was… I modified the grub.cfg file and ran grub2-mkconfig and I think it was saying it detected a Linux install at my root partition, but didn’t seem to recognize my /boot or /boot/efi partitions and I couldn’t figure out how to edit that via the grub cli. If that wasn’t the case, then that’s okay. I’ll make sure to teach myself a bit more about the bootloader before trying to edit it again
I think you may need help… I bid you good luck on your recovery :P
Time heals all wounds :P
I was trying to set up snapper, so sorta on my way there lol
You’re right. I spent a few hours trying to fix it before giving up and determined that reinstalling would be quicker lol
I feel your pain :P
I’m almost done getting everything back, I think!
That’s awesome news! I’m gonna look into this now!
Is this not up to date then? I knew that it was a thing that had worked, based on the previous link but did not think it worked atm. I’ll look into the link you sent tho!
I already have a few flatpak apps since a handful of the software I use isn’t in any repo natively. Definitely good advice to check it out
I may at some point consider. I’m gonna rock out with this for the time being though, and later down the road if I feel like exploring I can set up a third boot partition. I appreciate the suggstions!
I’ve been using LO for the past few months in preparation. I was only stuck on MS office for group work
Thanks! The only thing I’ve gone to windows for all day is to retrieve files
League of legends, sadly lol. Also a touch of CS, while I haven’t tested it, I’m pretty sure it doesn’t work
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll have to look into Proton GE sometime
If I ever feel like going back I may do that. In the meantime I’m very happy with what fedora has to offer me so far. Just finishing installing the software I use regularly now!
It is an nvidia card, but I did manage to install the drivers and they seem to be working great.
How fast were you before and how much practice are you putting in? And where are you at now? I hope you’re enjoying the journey :)
