Historically the OSX side has not been "friendly" to the linux side, breaking Grub links willy-nilly when running an upgrade . . . any of that could be causing problems in "the system" . . . ????? The APFS formatting might be overwhelming the other formats?? Later today, I'll try to get back to the Lu system and find the name of the "crash" file . . . but, main reason for posting here was that these "system program problem" error windows that open, don't provide any way of seeing the details, as traditionally they have, there used to be an arrow for a drop down menu that would "show details" . . . now it's just "report?" or "cancel" as the two choices, without knowing what it is we are reporting . . . ??? > [1]: > > https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/html_node/Internationalisation.html#Filesystems > > -- > @wxl | polka.bike > C563 CAC5 8BE1 2F22 A49D > 68F6 8B57 A48B C4F2 051A >
