SleeplessCityLightsNot going to lie. Many years ago on one of my first Linux installs that I actually built up to be more than just a dev playground, I deleted my bootloader… it just let me do that, no scary confirm. That is the day I learned Linux is guardrails-off, lol.
My personal hurdle as teenager always was having to keep windows on same disk for my sisters to use while struggling to install Linux besides it so I could have that semi transparent terminal like in the movies. Can’t even count how many times I’ve bricked bootloader because of that, but when it worked I felt like I’m a president
Windows is the best program to use if you want to accidentally lose your boot ability. I haven’t bothered to try dual boot for 10 years because I got tired of the bullshit.
Really especially at the my teenage times, there was no Google to help you, no mentors to guide you. You got some shitty homemade linux distro on CD from a friend and only way was through trial and error. Funny times
