Hi all,

I’m having a bad day and did something colossally stupid, deleting everything from /boot/.

The system is still running. What do you think my best course of action is?

My current idea is to create a timeshift backup, reinstall debian from USB, then restore from backup in timeshift

If this won’t work or you have a better idea I would really appreciate your advice.

Thanks in advance

    I’m assuming it’s a fresh install, so nothing of value was lost if the restore failed. But also I’ve heard attempting to delete things in /sys and /dev can brick your computer. So it’s not a great idea.
