Fix Bazzite after upgrading to new SSD?
I just swapped out the 1tb ssd on my Ally X with a 4tb. I used Acronis True Image to copy the partitions over, but it warned that it wouldn't be able to boot a linux install after. It does still boot into Windows, but how do I go about fixing it so that I can get back into Bazzite again? I used secure boot when I installed Bazzite, if that makes a difference. Should I just wipe everything and start over instead of trying to save what I had on the old drive?

You should just need to select it from the bios boot menu as long as whatever you used didn't nuke the bootloader for bazzite
Hi @HikariKnight
What if the bootloader is nuked?
reinstall will be the easiest i think
i dont dualboot, specifically to avoid stuff like this
That'll be rough. Had some stuff on bazzite that I didn't backup.
Thanks Hikari, I'll see if I can salvage somehow
You can try mounting the btrfs partition in Windows with the WinBtrfs driver and back up your data that way
