My common solution to boot issues that lock me out is,
-
Get a USB Live distro (always good to have a backup lying around)
-
Boot into live distro
-
Chroot into the broken distro (Arch wiki has an article on this)
-
Fix any bugs that I can find and/or reinstall the bootloader
-
Test, repeat until the problem has been found and fixed
Hope it helps any newcomers!
Absolutely loved that novel (novella?). The descriptive language really captures a lot of the theme, from the shipyard chained together into a shanty town to the description of Sols oven being modified to different energy sources as societies resources dwindled
Would absolutely recommend it, especially if you enjoyed soylent green
