Yes please, I feel like it's not as common to see such detailed commentaries and walkthroughs of Linux Mint troubleshooting, particularly dual-boot troubleshooting. The Arch Wiki has spoiled me.
ayyy nice!!! I tried to make it dual boot with win7 on my mom's broken laptop (before anyone says anything about vunerabilities: it kind of threw out the Internet driver I couldn't get win7 to connect to the Internet even if I wanted it to)
(anyways yeah it threw out all things internet related not even the ethernet port worked). it wouldn't recognize mint in the bootloader so if i want to use it I have to mash f9 to select the partition. this wasn't a wise choice on my end but also the laptop was already broken
i dont think dual booting is what cause the issue.. also, i came across an article that detailed my exact error and the fix. i just think it might be helpful to document the process in a way the average person can comprehend. idk i'm kind of a noob at this too, i didnt know how to do any of this until a few days ago
i should probably just write a blog post at this point
