  • Thanks! Using -e jumped right to the problem:

    Something—I don’t know what—added a removable drive to fstab, and the error was that drive couldn’t be mounted at boot.

    I have two guesses:

    1. I formatted a microSD card using YaST Paritioner sometime before doing the distro upgrade.
    2. The drive might have been attached during the distro upgrade, though I don’t think it was.

    At any rate, I commented out that line in fstab and it booted right up. Now I just have to fix snapper.

    EDIT: Why is my -e red?
    Testing
    -f
    -aBx

    Weird. What I see when viewing mycomment on thelemmy.club:



  • Yes, of course. And they they replied to acknowledge they were being reductive, and then explained their exasperation at the original comment (which was not from you). I don’t see anything particularly wrong with that, and then you made a pretty condescending reply. That’s OK. You don’t always need to be polite. Lord knows I’m not. But it was coincidentally kinda funny! I laughed at it, myself. You literally said, “would you like me to explain it like I’m five”, which is just so silly! I wish you could see the humor in it.

    So I think their deadpan reply of “No, an explanation like you were five wouldn’t improve upon OP.” is an excellent and appropriately snarky reply that points out the silliness of what you said while also returning your snark back to you.

    Have a most excellent day!
