ah dammit, killed my #asahi install forcing an early upgrade to #fedora 44. probably could have been saved with more fedora-fu (i'm an #ubuntu-girl at heart), as failure seemed more about fedora than asahi per se. otoh in the process of troubleshooting found they only actually "released" asahi fedora remix 43 a couple of days ago so... progress has slowed to a crawl.

partitions gone. may try again closer to when my macs fall off #apple's support path.
