You must sacrifice a live Penguin by smashing a window with an apple.
that makes perfectly sense… thanks.
I still remember when I tried to run a binary on a different architecture and got the message: “Bad elf magic”
Goth Tinkerbell with her chemical powders.
check at ArcaneOverflow
Hahaha good one. I’ll look it up in the ancient penguin libraries.
Allocation is a perfectly valid school of magic
Jokes aside, you either installed for the wrong architecture, or you’re fucked hard.
Okay guys it’s fixed! I had to reboot into an older kernel, that did it. I was kinda panicking, cuz i have to use it for work.
This is really odd, I hit this same issue recently. Booting into an old kernel also fixed it for me. What distro are you using? I’m on Ubuntu.
Maybe it replaces the kernel during reboot. But since i powered it off directly, the magic disappeared.
You and that kernel were both panicking!
More context please: What happened? What were you doing? What does you setup look like?
It’s an acer laptop i5 GeForce mx 130, basically I updated the linux firmware and put it on suspend but nvidia GPU did it’s thing and it didn’t wake up from sleep. So I has to power it off directly and it booted up to this.
From the looks of it, grub is grumpy. Do you get this after choosing a boot option? If so, can you try choosing recovery vs regular boot? If not, you may need to get a live USB plugged in and reinstall grub.
Edit: on further searching, this might be a zfs error. Are you using openzfs?
Thanks it’s fixed, i booted into an old kernel.
I think it’s a joke OP doesn’t need help.
I actually did, but it’s fixed now.
First you need to put on your robe and wizard hat.
That’s for when the world is in danger. This isn’t a serious enough issue for that.
Update: for anyone who’s having the nvidia suspend issue and finds this post. Apparently turning off OS prober in the grub config fixes that. Good day, and keep practicing the magic!
Consult the ancient tome of the Arch Wiki
Isn’t it obvious? Press the key labeled ‘Any’
This one?
Direct image linkIf it were like that it would say “Press the any key”.
I got “invalid magic number” when trying to set up grub
Maybe one of these?
IDK but it was my fault, I was a noob and was trying to run Ubuntu server from live usb with one (1) month of Linux experience, at least I experimented Idk, that’s the point I guess.
at least I experimented Idk, that’s the point I guess.
That’s absolutely the point.
I’ve done most of my learning after messing up my system (or at least learnt the lessons that stuck the most).
