    Yay, it only took 2 hours and the help of an llm since the upgrade corrupted my lvm metadata! Little bit of post cleanup and verifying everything works. Now I can go to sleep (it’s 5am).

    Wasn’t that bad, but not exactly relaxing. And when my VMs threw a useless error (‘can’t start need manual fix’) I might have slightly panicked…

      Thanks for posting this and reminding me to never go back to Proxmox. My Proxmox server killed itself and all VM’s twice before I moved onto HyperV.

        Oof. I have my VMs getting backed up to another machine so theoretically (untested) I should be able to recover with less than a day of data loss (very minimal for this box). The annoying part would be getting it hooked up to a monitor and keyboard, since it’s under an end-table in the living room.

        This is the first issue in like… 15 months? Hopefully it stays rather uneventful.

        I’m always up late (it’s 5:19a), though a good bit more than usual lately. But I did the upgrade because I was anxious, had nothing to do, and there were no users utilizing the machine.
