From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Edit: solved. Sorry guys, it was something silly. Instead of clicking shutdown on windows I just hard pressed the off button for some seconds on the laptop. So I booted back on windows and let it shutdown normally and then Debian was able to boot again. Hehe

So I've made a clean install of Debian 12 when it came out and have been using only it exclusively for this time. But I had Windows 10 on dual boot already since when I was using Debian 11, I just never booted on Windows until now.

I had to fill in some PDF documents and ended up having to go to windows and use Adobe Acrobat there because LibreOffice and google docs kept messing up the PDF files when I tried to add text to them.

So I did my thing on windows and finished it all just now and then rebooted and tried to boot my Debian 12 and it won't boot. All I see is:

/dev/sda11: recovering journal

/dev/sda11: clean [...] files, [...] blocks

And it is stuck here forever. I already tried to reboot multiple times.

I did nothing on windows to mess with the Linux partitions btw. Only chrome / acrobat / and I sent the files to google drive (so I didn't even try to copy them directly into the Linux partition or anything).

Please tell me I did not brick my OS and need a clean stall pls. What can I try? The answers I've tried from google don't work.

It is Debian 12 stable with nothing but software from the official stable repositories and flatpak.

11 partitions.. sounds like some of them need a nofail flag in fstab.
