    When you say “unrecoverable” do you mean the graphical desktop didnt load? Or you couldnt even log in to the terminal?

    A lot of newbies assume that not getting to a graphical session means the OS is dead and nuke it and start over. When in a lot of cases, you can just switch to the command line and troubleshoot or roll back the broken drivers

    Just for future reference if you try linux again

      It’s been long enough I can’t recall exactly what the situation was or how I was troubleshooting it. I recall that rolling back bazzite and the nvidia drivers didnt work for me when I attempted it.
