I do apologize if my question can be answered from another question on this forum. My patience is running low so i'm hopping off for dinner to reset lol earlier though I came across this post here(Booting Issue) which is almost exactly the issue that I am noticing. I am using the qtile version of garuda linux. Shortly after I did a full update using "yay -Syu --devel" my computer suddenly could not boot. However, when I go into the snapshots and boot from one a few hours old it works flawlessly.
I have removed the lockfile in /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
Now when I try "doas pacman -Syu" I get:
ââ Garuda Linux at jordan in â
â°âλ doas pacman -Syu
