I wanted to move my Arch VM to bare metal, so I copied out all the important bits. Then I wanted to move that copy to a new drive so I could boot into it.
I THOUGHT I'd MV all the files in the Arch install's etc directory using sudo MV /etc ...
I also (somehow) mashed my install's etc with Arch's and bungled both, with no live CD to help.
I learned a thing or two about absolute file paths...
Damn this is timely, I just got a second hand Pinephone today
