love Linux usability. *starts running upgrade tool doing everything like the manual says* upgrade tool: "BTW you can't run this while the x server is running" also upgrade tool: *has already ruined everything at this point so you cannot cancel and run it again*

on the bright side, the mount command still works the same as it did 15 years ago

seriously, Linux is still 100% unusable if you don't either a) are willing to invest a few weeks minimum learning the general unix basics and how to operate the whole system from the shell or b) have someone who will do that for you

disabled the splash screen and can now successfully boot the system lol. but I imagine being someone who doesn't know how to mount -o remount,rw / to edit the grub config??? like. you'd NEVER get there on your own.

it took 14 months but I finally can use my computer again lol. I also discovered the cause of my performance problems which was that the video card fan had completely fallen off

the splashscreen is still an issue. disabling it in the grub config somehow didn't actually change anything. I can exit it with F2 if I'm fast enough, once it shows me the hd password field I can neither enter anything nor exit the screen lol.

I've got no energy to research how to fix this so I won't. call it passive security. anyone who will try to boot my system without me being present will fail.

I don't know why changing the grub config worked for the first boot after that lol.
