I have to say I couldn’t understand half what they said.

I think you took the wrong enlargement pill.

Because for most use cases, Mint works flawlessly. It changes little from time to time. It has all the drivers to get started with a wide range of common hardware. It has all the codecs to play common media formats.

Of course if the package update is too slow, it’s not for you, but then unlike you, most people don’t need the latest and greatest. They just need something that works from the get-go with predictable behavior.

Your system would continue to work as long as you don’t turn it off. So no matter what you do, keep it on until you restored your /boot

Recovering it should be straightforward, assuming you didn’t put custom files directly to /boot.

Just reinstall the linux kernels using apt. Then manually run grub-install with appropriate parameters. Finally, run update-grub or grub-mkconfig to recreate the grub config.

If the system is turned off, you can use live USB and chroot to it to properly install the kernel packages.

What is Secure Boot actually good for? Serious question.

At this point, he’d be much safer surrendering to Ukraine.
