[SOLVED] Did I break my debian install with proxmox?

[somethingsomething]

Heyy, would be very (very) thankful for some quick asisstance. I have a full disk encrypted debian installation on hdd that was working fine. Now I installed a proxmox installation on a separate hdd while the debian hdd was unplugged. Plugging debian back in, I now only get a black screen with a blinking underscore (with proxmox plugged out). I think it would be somewhat logical if the harddisk was plugged in since I followed this guide, which did some tampering with grub and kernel, however it wasn't. As far as I can see online, the solution woud be to rescue via external disk and fix kernel/grub. Is it realistic that this is the right solution, should I follow that?

hi,

so by following the wiki, did you make another clean debian installation on the new HDD and then installed PVE repositories on top?

are you booting from the same disk as before? or is GRUB located on the install disks of debian or PVE?

are there any other disks on your machine?

Hey @oguz thanks for the reply. I was able to fix the problem: it was something with the bootloader. It's always the bootloader, isn't it.
