How do I fix?
pastel ridge
I can fix your bluetooth, but not wifi
rare dawn
Why
pastel ridge
wifi should be appearing in the list with two "no"
rfkill is turning off your bluetooth, but as far as wifi goes, it is not detected at all
type rfkill toggle bluetooth
this should turn on your bluetooth
pastel ridge
I do not know if rfkill toggle bluetooth can be put in a bashrc, but I would recomend having a systemd script do that every boot
Do you have other kernels?
rare dawn
Wdym kernels
pastel ridge
Get into the grub boot loader, and show me what you see
you can press the arrow keys to ensure it doesn't auto boot
pastel ridge
Do you not see something that says "boot linux mint" or something after this?
rare dawn
Should I plug in my usb?
pastel ridge
just get to where you would be that normally boots mint
rare dawn
Oh here
pastel ridge
there should be an advanced options or something
rare dawn
pastel ridge
is your USB drive required for mint?
rare dawn
No
pastel ridge
I was expecting a similar screen that does not use the live ISO
rare dawn
What should I do?
pastel ridge
What are the steps you do to boot into mint?
rare dawn
To like go to boot mode? Or to get to the mint menu
pastel ridge
I am looking for this that mint should have
Should be like
boot mint (numbers show the kernel version)
boot mint (adanced options)
possibly another option
something that takes you to the BIOS screen
rare dawn
Wait is it in boot mode
pastel ridge
Here is a screenshot of an alternative layout
pastel ridge
basically this but not the USB
rare dawn
Which one should I pick to get there? ^
rare dawn
What about this?
pastel ridge
That should not show up
Ok seems you might have a broken mint install with your bootloader
have you messed with anything in /boot?
You do have a great tool to help you get back into mint being the live ISO, but I do not know if mint has arch-chroot
rare dawn
I can reset
pastel ridge
Yeah, get back into a live environment if you can
rare dawn
Should I install another version of mint?
rare dawn
I have no personal files
pastel ridge
ah, then if this is a new install of mint, did you put the mint installer in ventoy, or did you correctly burn mint to it's own USB?
not all USB can use ventoy, so it is often best to not use it
I found that my spare computer only accepts gentoo's iso on ventoy, but my main accepts debian along side gentoo with windows as well
rare dawn
I used the make a bootable drive on Linux mint 19
pastel ridge
Try this
reinstall mint, then see if after you fully power down your machine if you can boot
if you cannot boot, it is likely a dead CMOS battery on top of the wifi issue
pastel ridge
<@715015388152201308> I can’t remove anything off the usb
that is fine
you should be installing from the USB to your HDD
the live ISO would have the version with network support on it as your upgrade broke mint
