My backup pc had the most issues with updates, and it doesn’t have a dedicated GPU. I wouldn’t update it for a few weeks or a month+, update, fail to boot, rollback, try again in a few weeks and it would work.
The final straw was when I was working abroad with bad internet, and had to weigh whether -S or -Syu is more likely to cause a failure.
Interesting. How long ago was this? I use arch daily as my main driver, but also run it on a vps, a laptop, and a raspberry pi (arm distro). Other than grub, I can’t recall the last time upgrading caused an issue.
Yes, I’ve been affected by the grub crap several times.
Been using arch and endeavour for about 5 years now, only ever had boot issues caused by Nvidia drivers. Outside of grub that is.
