An unofficial Debian Installer for Pinebook Pro
(02-09-2020, 01:42 PM)ThatGeoGuy Wrote: Oh man, this seems gnarly. Given that I had barely any mods on the install itself (mesa-git, bluetooth from manjaro, and from testing->sid), I think I might be better off just re-installing, which seems like far less effort, given how simple the installer is. There was a time where I would actually do something like this, but I get the sense that this would be a mistake here, in terms of time tradeoff. Most of the relevant data for my home dir / configuration files were on an external SD anyways. That said, I would really like to get to the bottom of why this happened. I fear others' systems on sid may meet similar fates, given that I did not do much with the system and this happened.
Yes - if you don't have a significant investment in the existing config, and saved home? That's the exact right trade-off!
