Yeah, all I did do right was have Windows on a USB. That’s important because I don’t have another Windows machine. Manjaro can be downloaded as a .iso and burned onto a flash drive from any OS, but not so with Windows.
I was doing phyical maintenance on a old laptop of mine where I fried a cable because I plugged the battery in and forgot to plug that cable in but I forgot to unplug the battery before plugging that cable in and ended up frying a cable when plugging it back in
I once tried partitioning the disk i was running on because i was new and didnt know that wouldn’t work, cfdisk now has a warning if you try to do that
Don’t mess around with partitions on your disk when it’s past midnight, you’re extremely stressed, and you don’t have (easily accessible) backups.
Classic, “what the fuck did I do here and why did I think this was a good idea,” material.
Yes, that does sound like good advice even from a morning, first coffee is brewing kind of viewpoint.

On Linux I use https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB to create windows flash drives… works uhh most of the time? :D In case you hadn’t heard of it :)
!!! Thank you for this!
Glad I took the time to comment ☺️
I am in this comment and I don’t like it.
Additionally don’t do maintenance on your computers when tired, learned from experience
Okay, almost done.
rm -rf ./*. Wait…pwd. Shit.I was doing phyical maintenance on a old laptop of mine where I fried a cable because I plugged the battery in and forgot to plug that cable in but I forgot to unplug the battery before plugging that cable in and ended up frying a cable when plugging it back in
Luckily it was only the cable that got fried
But that’s in the past now
Are you me, I have experienced this 2 days ago
I am so sorry… is it okay now?
It went okay but I had trouble sleeping
Ha, I don’t fuck around with anything that make break my PC or phone until a weekend with no commitments comes up.
That’s smart.

Or df in Diskpart.
