What are the implications of having Anaconda running at the bootloader level as an installer for Fedora WS? (docs.fedoraproject.org)

I’ve been trying Workstation recently. Python dependency issues caused me to switch to Silverblue for the last 2 years. A new machine with Nvidia got me to try WS.

Black screen blinking prompt during apt upgrade: what to do?

I just did an apt update followed by an apt upgrade, and during the latter the screen went all blank with a blinking prompt. I also hear the fans. It’s been like this for 10 min now.
