Unable to boot when trying to install Waydroid

Alright, I might've regretted doing this. So I tried following this guide by @Austin (Ultimate Guide to install Waydroid in any Arch-based distro(especially Garuda)) suggested by @Kayo .

Now when I try to reboot, I was stuck in this message. (cant upload picture, so here is link: https://i.ibb.co/JrZwmzJ/IMG-20230713-073547.jpg)

My system info I have copied last time is:

Hi @tokomalpeh, a nice easy way to hit the undo button on this one will be to boot a snapshot from Grub, restore the snapshot, then reboot to your restored system.

Here is a brief guide with a little more information:

Try rebooting again to the latest snapshot. Things might work fine on a second reboot, from my experience.

As far as I know, Waydroid shouldn’t cause any issues while booting.

That’s a month without updating your system!

I, too, had issues with linux-zen on my AMD hardware recently. I was not able to boot.

You can try installing any of the Cachyos kernels.

You can use Waydroid Settings to use your integrated AMD graphics for Waydroid
