    don’t act like this is normal

    i can’t think of a linux release in the 22+ years that’s had a non recoverable boot loop

    and who says it wasn’t staggered? doesn’t do a damn thing for those in the release group

      You just said you recovered the windows boot loop.

      Linux breaks booting all the time. Its so common its every linux user knows how to fix it. Pick the distro and you’ll find tons of boot issues after major updates.

        yea recovered by reinstalling an image from before the update, the system was a complete brick otherwise

        it took microslop 3 weeks to fix their shit, google it if you are confused, it wasn’t a limited hardware exposure issue, it was bad code

        we’ve been running rhel stable for decades with never a single example like this, i’m not talking about one off hiccups, i’m talking about the entire main line being busted

        pulling an example of loops from some random linux unstable distro or beta is meaningless

        to claim otherwise is bullshit, again this is not normal, even ms hasn’t been this bad since early vista
