Backup ASAP as thoroughly possible and accept you'll probably need to start over. Schedule backups more often in the future as a lesson learned.
Yes indeed.
I made the mistake of putting my timeshift backup on the same disk as the data and kept having it fill my drive to 0bt and crash plasma. Of course I do something this idiotic the one time it's disabled
If you have a backup, can you mount it and restore just /boot? It shouldn't change so frequently as to be incompatible.
I don't, It's so dumb I almost don't want to admit it over tor lol
I deleted it the other day because I was playing with someone multiplayer in my vfio GPU passthrough VM (elden ring seamless coop) and got frustraed with timeshift filling up my drive every day mid session and causing me to stop the game and ctrl alt f7 root, delete the files, ctrl alt F2, killall plasmashell, kstart plasmashell, resume the VM, and then call them again on steam
I will be more diligent with backups in the future.
