Ah, yes I saw all the comment suggestions and was hoping a fresh reinstall would work for you.
Did you format before reinstall? Definitely seems like fstab issue dropping you into initramfs that would need some manual intervention.
A format and fresh install should totally resolve this (assuming installation options and selections are sound).
What does ‘ls /dev/sd*’ ran from shell show you?
Can you reinstall? If possible, use the whole disk (no dual booting and bootloader to deal with).
This works on almost no level. Shit tier.
2025 already was, and it continues. The ecosystem and Proton have changed the game (no pun intended), and even normies are starting to switch.
I finally migrated from MacOS (other than Logic Pro) and Windows. Keep Windows around for some games but it is no longer first in boot order on any machine, and I am delighted.
Every time I boot to Windows it drags ass forever, updates, reboots, repeats, and by the time I can use it I am not even interested.
I was Windows only and a gamer growing up. Work and music production had me on Mac learning UNIX, bash anyway.
After this year’s Windows 11 updates and the amount of Linux gaming support available thanks to SteamOS and Proton, I now boot to a Linux distro more often than not. If it isn’t a specific Windows only game, I can do everything I want on Linux and not feel like I am inside of a corporate office building in my mind. My personal Mac has become my Logic machine.
Ubuntu works pretty well out of the box. Manjaro as well if you want to pretend to use Arch :)
Unfortunately a judge rejected the Onion’s bid on InfoWars
Good thing for you, that’s terrible OpSec.
