Somehow the EFI partition doesn’t mount and it’s impossible to troubleshoot via phone, she asked me to put back the old system 😞

What distro did this happen on?
How long ago did you install it?
Pop os, a few months ago
Pop os wasn’t the best distribution to start her on. It’s new. Unstable and updates often. Linux mint, Debian, fedora.
Are you thinking of some other distribution?
Pop! hasn’t released a new version since 2022 and rarely updates aside from security patches.
Your using pop os cosmic? Its still I alpha stage.
Try silverblue or kinoite something immutable that will not break
Bluefin/Aurora is the most sane option in that space, stock Silverblue offerings are lacking a few essentials.
For me personally no,they both over bloated with many useless tools,why installing custom terminals dozens no need containers waydroid and else .From my case what elderly was need is browser and office and some social apps that it nothing more
Or btrfs with snapper snapshots you can roll back to. Either way I suspect hard drive corruption. That’s usually what it is for me (although I do lose power with abnormal frequency)
wild
I’ve been off and on popos for like a 5 years and other than early issues with sound and Bluetooth, don’t ever even think about
Are updates being done by the OS automatically or are you going into the terminal and running an apt-get upgrade periodically?
I’ve had issues when I do a terminal update because I believe that Pop expects you to do an apt-get dist-upgrade
