This morning I tried to play a game on my steam deck and it froze so I did a force restart then the boot screen was there for 12 minutes so I went and got the recovery USB I have then the reimage said the partition was altered so I got a SD card and put the recovery ISO on there using Rufus and now it’s not working at all

Any advice?

    Yea the way I got it fixed was by installing Linux mint and that overrides all the partitions on the drive and then using the steamOS recovery image which then deletes and overrides Linux mint.
    I have LCD version TLDR install a different OS then Install steamOS There may be a better way just this way worked for me

      My guess for this reason is that something changes in hardware, a update to the software or a change in the bios and steamOS just doesn’t like that
