Upgraded from 22.04 to 24.04. Now stuck on a loading screen for 22.04? - Lemmy

I did as the title says. After the update, I landed on a loading screen for 22.04. I thought it was part of the update process, but it seemed strange that the version wasn’t correct. Is this normal? The loading screen is all gray, with pop os version 22.04 written on it. There are 4 small dots underneeth the text that change colours from time to time.

Not normal, does the OS load slow or not at all?

It seems to be loading. My computer only takes a few seconds to turn on. The terminal shows up and displays texts about blocks for a fraction of a second. Then the loading screen i mentioned in the post shows up.

Maybe try to repair the install with a live USB?

I’ll try. I was just scared that this was part of the update and that restarting my pc would mess things up.

Edit: took a little while, but i fixed it!

Was it a matter of waiting or what did you end up finding out?

I had to use a liveUSB, as stated above. I completely reinstalled pop os. I had my home and my flatpak apps in a different partition anyways.
