Follow-up from “Dumbest Thing you have done distro-hopping?”.
Here’s mine - the laptop from which I’m typing right now has a broken touchpad that keeps jumping and clicking randomly, and does not work. Well, I can’t afford to fix it, but at the moment, I was so pissed off I punched the touchpad really hard, and the machine panicked with all the lights blinking. A few more revival abuses, and the machine was back to life, but since I was running a nixos-rebuild switch --upgrade
in the background, I blew off my boot partition. I think I just broke the unbreakable distro.
That’s all fun and all until windows decides to wipe your Linux bootloader for no apparent reason
You are correct, but then Windows will get the boot entirely. It can stay as long as it behaves. It literally has it’s own fate in it’s hands.
And I know how to get the bootloader working again, so that will be just fine.
