    I had the same problem after today's update. Fridays update went fine too.
    I followed @EbonJaeger post above to fix it by chrooting:

    https://help.getsol.us/docs/user/troubleshooting/boot-rescue/#mounting-your-system

    1. you need A Live ISO or another system you can boot
    2. Mounting your system
    3. mount your EFI System Partition (in case of EFI)
    4. Chrooting to your Solus system

    here you will probably need this

    sudo ln -srvf /target/usr/bin/bash /target/bin/bash
    sudo ln -srvf /target/usr/bin/bash /target/bin/sh
    1. I skipped Networking step
    2. Repairing packages

    sudo eopkg rebuild-db

    I skipped sudo eopkg up and sudo eopkg check here

    1. Re-run system-wide configuration triggers

    sudo usysconf run -f

    1. Regenerate UEFI boot entries

    sudo clr-boot-manager update

    1. Unmounting your system
      and reboot.

    This worked for me.

      Solarmass you chrooted into your budgie? I thought today's update was made to prevent that?
      My eopkg was not damaged in Friday's. Was yours? I'm confused but been a long day.

      edit: I have not downloaded the updates today or installed them or rebooted.

        ReillyBrogan My Monitors are not working right, every few minutes, they shuffle their arrangement at random intervals, and sometimes go hours just fine. I have combed over the settings many times and have them set the way i want/need, but they still shuffle. Any ideas? Please advise me 🙂 I usually run 4 monitors with primary mirrored, but since the issues started, have unplugged #4 but to no avail.

        brent I updated my system on Friday without any issues. Today's "hot" update borked it and I had to chroot. Interesting that my other Solus PC wasn't affected.

          trippy. thanks for clarifying

          sudo ln -srvf /target/usr/bin/bash /target/bin/bash
          sudo ln -srvf /target/usr/bin/bash /target/bin/sh

          Solarmass, thanks this helped me get up and running again.

          Friday week 19 updated with no issues, but the fix for that update broke the system, on reboot with

          [FAILED] Failed to start apparmor.service - Load AppArmor profiles., etc

          Somehow, without announcement, the updates are blocked again.
          Which is good since I can avoid the 'hot' fix. I hope.

          Was going to face the music and update but:

          Failed to fetch file, retrying 5 out of 5 "https://cdn.getsol.us/repo/shannon/eopkg-index.xml.xz.sha1sum": HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
          Program terminated.
          Hit max retry count when downloading: "https://cdn.getsol.us/repo/shannon/eopkg-index.xml.xz.sha1sum"
          Please use 'eopkg help' for general help.

          it's late afternoon/night in the USA.
          Feels like I dodged a bullet?

          Solarmass So all of this worked for me, except the clr-boot-manager update step. That gives an error of "Cannot determine the currently running kernel" and I'm not quite sure why. Should I attempt to exit chroot anyway, reboot and see if the system is fixed?

          The staffs are still working on this (again), hence the shannon repo is blocked again. If you want to see the process, feel free to join the packaging room on matrix. Reilly, Evan, and many other staffs are discussing(working) the best move forward. Also as noted before if steps explained here doesn't solve your current problem, please go to support room on matrix for more personalized troubleshooting. Clearly, this is critical problem as we don't want anymore users end up in borked system. Thank you all for your patience. Cheers !

          Thanks for posting this, I'd forgotten to hit the update button and was wondering why it was sitting on the Discombobulation step just now.

          Okay, the stable repository is once again unblocked; we believe we now have a path forward.

          If you still experience issues while updating, such as if an earlier update broke your system, please follow the steps in this Help Center article to chroot into your system from a live session, and run the following commands:

          sudo ln -srvf /target/usr/bin /target/bin
          sudo ln -srvf /target/usr/sbin /target/sbin

          This will perform the "usr-merge" manually, creating symbolic links for /bin and /sbin. After that, exit the chroot and reboot your system.

          Note: As a result of the fixes, eopkg check will fail on a bunch of packages. This is because of the symbolic links for /bin, /sbin, and /lib, and does not actually indicate a problem. This will be addressed at a later time.

          EbonJaeger changed the title to Temporary blocking of updates, now unblocked .

          My update script I threw together checks for broken packages each time after a system update, and at the moment it is listing the following packages as broken and reinstalling them every time I run it:
          acl apparmor attr audit bash bzip2 coreutils cpio dash e2fsprogs fuse2 glibc golang grep iproute2 iptables kmod mdadm ntfs-3g sed shadow systemd tar util-linux wpa_supplicant zsh

          I am also experiencing major lag spikes during most every operation, but I'm unsure how related to the current update that is as I just installed a new gpu (gtx 4060ti) & updated the bios version.

          EDIT: I'm sorry! Missed the part where you said eopkg check will fail. Major system stuttering/freezing is due to the new GPU, so I'll make a new thread for that.

            Kuuchuu If your system is working, it is harmless. As noted on previous post

            Note: As a result of the fixes, eopkg check will fail on a bunch of packages. This is because of the symbolic links for /bin, /sbin, and /lib, and does not actually indicate a problem. This will be addressed at a later time

            Also please try update it normally using sudo eopkg upgrade, then reboot. Reinstalling all those "broken" packages over and over will not solve the issue until it is addressed on later date.
