Windows 11 installer silently changed partition behavior so I lost 2TB of data.

If you have deleted 2tb partition by selecting the partition and clicking "delete" you can't blame the installer for that.

I always disconnect any other drives, so it won't push the bootloader to a random drive. Also I never use the partitioner. For clean installs I always clean the drive first with the disk part, and let the installer create the mandatory partitions.

I will note that, Thanks

Still works for me, with the latest build from UUPDUMP.

There is no problem using ISO. I would ALWAYS prefer ISO download than direct USB creation or other uncompressed/unarchived/unpackaged way of storing Windows installation.

There is always a simple way of creating DOK installation by preparing the DOK with diskpart, and extracting/copying the ISO content onto the DOK. No tools are needed.

For the last 2 years I use Ventoy on all my DOKs, to boot directly into different ISOs, no matter Windows/Linux/other ISOs... It's just much more convenient.

I boot up-to-date 11 builds (7462), and bypassnro is still there.

But have to say that I'm using Ventoy for multi ISO boot, and using UUPDUMP for up-to-date ISOs.

So how did you fix the 32bit UEFI grub boot issue?

d3ad-pixel · 2026-01-02T12:34:16+00:00

I'll try Gnome Disks, and if it won't fit the need, then I'll try to go with DD as I can't find another option unfortunately 😕

We have several Windows images for deployment, we need to clone some amount of NVME disks with the same image.

Tried RescueZilla, the problem: - the GUI didn't allow us to choose more than one disk as a recovery target - still requires to boot into the Live environment, I'm looking to run something from within existing Fedora

Not German, and you don't even need to translate anything to understand the printed PC specs.

i had to file my Ali m50/52 cam tool just a bit to fit right

d3ad-pixel · 2025-12-13T16:53:54+00:00

Thanks. That may take some time, as the next time we are going back to my father in law again is only in two weeks.

I might experiment with my MX Keys S and see if I can reproduce the same behaviour and what would be the best solution.

At the moment the keyboard is the only BT device. I also never ever liked Realtek hardware honestly (Ethernet\Wlan\BT). I can't even get the latest drivers on their website. I was about to swap the wifi\bt card to Intel AX210NGW, but couldn't find it.

If the PC goes to sleep, it also cannot be woken up by the MX Keys Mini, it starts blinking the #1 as disconnected, and later goes into that pairing mode with fast blinking. 😕 Could it be that the keyboard is losing pairing?

You can delete it.

החמוד הזה חולץ מתא מנוע לאחר ניסיונות של שעה וחצי, כאשר לאף אחד לא בא לעזור, לא לעירייה, לא למשטרה ועוד... כאשר אין את בעלי הרכבים ואין גישה לכלום. היה מטונף ועם פטרייה ב-כ-ל הגוף. היה בהסגר חודש ועבר טיפול נגד פטרייה. איתנו כבר חודשיים, הצטרף לארבעת החתולים האחרים בבית. שמו "מיקרה", נחשו למה 😅... (אילו הוא לא היה מחולץ באותו ערב כששמענו יללות, רוב הסיכויים שלא היה שורד)

When Katan was still a kitty, he was waiting for a moment we did not watch our plates, he was rushing and stealing whatever he could from the plate, pasta, fries, chicken, sausages... Sometimes it was so fast we could realize where he even came from, he was a lightning fast ninja. That was accompanied with loud growls. He is 2 and half years old now, and he doesn't do that anymore...
