I wanted to dual boot linux and windows but installed linux on the wrong drive partition and wrote over all of my data.
Decided i was too stupid for linux. To be fair that was 3 years ago, maybe ill try again soon
If you try again, follow a dual-boot guide for your distro. Also, make your root and home partitions separate, so if you run into issues, you can reset safely.
I spent three days installing Arch from scratch. After I got it working, I wiped everything and did it again and again, I wrote 2 simple script to automate the process, and after I was done, I wiped everything and installed Manjaro lol.
It’s a good learning experience, I recommend every new Linux user do it in a sandbox at least once.

Try again and learn from your mistakes. Installing linux is nothing compared to much more difficult tasks
