https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kLFghupgik&t=54s I didn't bother posting the Ubuntu wiki link because (at the moment) the Ubuntu wiki is...drumroll...BROKEN Way easier than doing it manually.

I am running Ubuntu 20.04 on my Oryx Pro laptop. I performed a normal update/upgrade and after a reboot, a white screen appeared with a sad monitor graphic and "Oh no, something went wrong!" message. I have 2 drives, one for the OS and one for /home/mark in the machine (sym link to OS drive). I created a writable Ubuntu 24.04 Live USB stick and I can boot the machine and access both drives. What diagnostics should I run to diagnose the problem? Especially to determine if I need a new OS drive. Or, should I just install Ubuntu 24.04 on the OS drive? The downside is the time needed installing all my apps and removing/reinstalling the /home/mark drive (so I don't mess that up!). System76 tech support was next to worthless. Waited 6 days for "We are very busy so just reinstall the OS". Thanks!
