Legion Go Bazzite Black Screen

Hello. I recently restarted my Legion Go from Bazzite. Now I receive a black screen when I attempt to boot into Bazzite. I dual boot with Windows, but never go into my Windows partion. I have read that Windows often overwrites other OS bootloaders, but I didn't do a recent Windows update. Any help would be appreciated. I don't want to have to go through the process of reinstalling Bazzite if I can avoid it. Thank you!

If you dock your legion, can you get to a tty terminal if you hit CTRL+ALT+F2 while you have the blank screen? if you can you might be able to see what the issue is by running journalctl -r. Do you get the blank screen every time you reboot? Did you update Bazzite recently? If so you might be able to boot up the last good image that you installed

Yes I updated Bazzite recently. I will try what you mentioned Okay, I just tried hitting CTRL+ALT+F2 on the blank screen. Nothing happened, though.

Hmmm try mash the ESC key or the Shift key during boot and see if you can get to the menu for booting your last working image. You'll want to boot the one that is labeled "ostree:1", that is your previous image before the upgrade

I'm trying f1-f5 with no success. Also, mashing esc did bring up that menu. My keyboard was unresponsive in that menu and it seemed to autoselect the top option after a couple seconds.

I think when you see that you mashed it too late What ver are you on

try mash the down button with whatever button you are mashing, the down button stops the grub timer, so you have more than 5 seconds to think of what you want to select
