12 hours later: I'm out of even nonsense ideas. PC is ewaste, be a year or two before I can afford a cheap one from Walmart or smth. I sometimes amaze myself, followed a straightforward installer so wrong it killed my PC. That's actual talent, really.
Least I still got the phone.
Installed Nobura so wrong it killed my windows install, isn't installed, and I can't install any os to any drive
If I get my computer back up I am learning the lesson I am too incompetent for linux
This is a total replacement of original title and body text
Yeah sure why not - I'll grab the official and see how that theme of KDE is cause I can just swap to regular if I don't like the tweaks. Also I have a Steam deck, the idea of linux by way of GE is appealing. If Steam's wasn't locked down I'd be in favour of just using the deck's distro for desktop. I assume they have one but have had issues with that protect me from myself not letting me install things heh.
the steam deck rocks:) I think Nobara have add-ons for supporting the decks game mode stuff which is cool, might give it a go on there sometime. yeah you can install steamOS on whatever but I prefer something more libre. good luck with it and feel free to hit me up if you run into issues!
flash complete, installing now
Yo it has the res setting I was trying to get out of the box on the live disk, heck yeah
Well I broke my computer. Lol Been trying to get any os back on it for like 5 hours now
sorry, I feel partly responsible:( that sucks. if you get access to a way of making new boot media I would try running
fsckon the drive and then probably write all zeros to it and create a new partition. I know you're probably done with this for now but I could post some resources later when I get on my PC that might help guide you.deleted by creator
