Hello,

first I installed Gentoo with glibc and it worked fine, I got sway up and running but after some time I got bored and wanted something new. so I decided to go with Arch with rEFInd bootloader but I couldn’t make it work. Arch dropped me into a rescue shell. so I went back to Gentoo but this time with musl and this time I tried Hyprland on Gentoo. there were 133 packages to install for Hyprland, so I went for installing those packages but the build failed probably because using musl. now I thought I just pick that’s easy to setup and I went with Debian and it got installed successfully. so yeah, right now I am using Debian after the back and forth between Arch and Gentoo.

sadly I pissed of some Gentoo devs on IRC #gentoo :(

maybe it was my fault I shouldn’t have distrohopped when Gentoo was installed succesfully and working fine.

    Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

      Yeah, I have distrohoped from morning to night. It’s 9:17 here.

      I did it because I really want to learn Linux and want a job related to Linux. I am really obsessed with Linux and BSD

    “distrohoped”?

    As in you hoped this next distro would be the one that worked well?

    Sounds like S.O.P

    For refind on Arch, you have to fix the entries it creates in /boot/refind.conf. Those point to the ISO drive when created in the chroot, so change them to point to your real root drive.
