I think I have mess up one of my partition

now I can't get it to remerge back together, and sometime trying to go back to installer and then go back to win11 well not let me boot back in or going to bios just nothing but black. the thing that would let back in, is to unplug the battery

you have made disk 0 dynamic. if possible, backup all data on disk 0 and reinitialize it. afaik you can't go back from dynamic to basic and linux can't read dynamic. you should see disk 0 (basic) like on disk 1

It took me a whole day to backup everything, now do I reinitialize it when I can't do anything to do that as the option to do that is gray out

https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/accidentally-turned-hard-disk-from-basic-to-dynamic.3701171/#post-22302842 I found this saying you need to delete all partitions before converting to basic Of course all partitions ın the dynamic disc, not all partitions everywhere

Ok

You may be able to ignore disk 0 and install on disk 1 but the installer can get confused. Not many people have dealt with dynamic disks (I haven't either)

The ssd act like there are two separate spaces, I want to recombine it again back when it was just one "partition", like it is with the disk 1

Do you want to merge 1798 GB and 63 GB? There is a simpler method, boot a live cd of gparted and move the small 600 mb partition to right

can also be done with a virtual cd?
mrvictorywin (Ping on reply)
"live cd" is a historic term kb on that one. basically create a USB in the same way you created one for bazzite. Gparted has ISOs like bazzite https://gparted.org/download.php
