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

    Live CD and reinstall kernel should do it. If it’s only boot, it’ll be as of nothing ever happened to it.

    No need to reinstall or start over, that’s wildly overkill. This is Linux, if your data is still there, it’s recoverable.
