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

this when I was trying to merge back together
and I couldn't format it
and these are option I chose when getting the iso then I put in Rufus to put a sd 32gb to usb 2.0 converter, and that where thing went down hill, now lead me to come here to get help

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
does the 1st pic you sent show all of your disks? are there any more?
Only one is left out, but it just some removable drive

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
So I also have to backup my window SSD
Anything in "Disk 0"
Aka, Acer(C:)
no, acer/dc (d:)
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)
so, for some reason I can't convert any thing

ok now disk 0 is back to basic

.
Ok, run bazzite installer now
Ok, I'm in the bazzite installer
What should I do? After running the installer
Proceed as normal
Is there anything specific you want to do?
I want to remerge my space in the ssd
After that I could just try to install it on a VM just to try it out
.
wdym with remerge?
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
there a option to extend volume, to allowed me remerge the unuse data

but it won't let me extend it ; aka to remerge
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?
"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

I think that it had actually work
