Oh shit… I just realized that it’s only a matter of time until Musk starts building vaults. Probably with a much worse name like vaultX

All good! Thanks for updating.

This is false and there’s a simple way to show it.

Remove the grub.cfg file and the system will boot to the grub prompt (not grub rescue). You can manually boot past this by inputting the Linux and initramfs lines.

Then test again but leave grub.cfg intact. Remove an important module like normal.mod and test booting - system will land at grub rescue instead of the normal grub prompt.

Once you test it would be good if you edit your posts so that you aren’t sharing bad information with others

If it’s going to grub rescue then that’s before it can even get to the grub menu (thus no kernel line at this point). It’s usually easiest to boot to live/rescue ISO and reinstall grub. Sometimes you can manually load grub modules from lib to manually boot from the grub rescue shell to the normal grub shell, but that’s more advanced.

Before getting banned it’s probably a good idea to remove or replace all of your posts and comments with something like https://redact.dev/services/reddit

Reddit monetizes the content that users create so remove that content. The admins probably have tools to restore deleted comments and posts but that takes effort and time and if enough time goes by data and backups get lost.

I’m not as familiar with Pop OS but it uses systemd boot as bootloader which is pretty simple. As the above commenter mentioned can you give a screenshot of any errors or where the boot hangs? Or if there’s just a black screen let us know. If it’s an early boot issue may need to just boot to live USB media and check the bootloader files and reinstall packages if any files are missing. People more familiar with systemd-boot and Pop OS may have better info.
