UPDATE: I checked the logs & found a few relevant entries. But it basically says that for some reason it cant initialise OpenGL backend, then stops wayland followed by all Qt processes failing causing any GUI elements to completely fail after that. What should i do now? I can’t use dnf since the wifi isnt connected yet in the tty3 so should I try a repair from the live boot?

Oh, I hadn’t realised those were there. I’ll see if I can get the GUI back up through the terminal. Do you have any idea what might’ve causes it to fail in the first place, though?

I know I can press esc to check the startup logs, which might hive a few more details. But I’m out right now, so I can’t check till later.

The dual boot is simply there because I still on occasion need to use windows-only software. Otherwise, everything’ll be on Fedora. All I need to do is migrate some of my projects

UPDATE: issue fixed. My USB drive was probably an older format since after trying again unsuccessfully, I plugged it into another USB port which must be a backwards compatible port sonce after that it worked smoothly

i let it sit there for about 25 mins how long should it normally be taking? isnt initramfs a vey basic component this is strange since everything else takes only up to 5mins to install

and by the installation is fine I mean up until that step everything has been working fine. installing software/bootloadet
