This is a collection of options you have to operate your manjaro safely. This is about events that can happen to every Linux user. Please do not underestimate the relevant risks and warnings. You can easily start a search in the Manjaro forum for each of the following points. Then you will get an overview of what the current status is at each point. | This is a collection of options you have to operate your manjaro safely.

Hardware tends to break from time to time ;-) . This most often happens shortly after installation (< 1 month) or after the end of the average lifespan (e.g. > 5 years). | Hardware tends to break from time to time ;-) .

In the simplest case it is enough to go to the UEFI boot selection. Your UEFI will then search for a suitable UEFI partition. And ideally finds the boot entry for the grub of manjaro. | In the simplest case it is enough to go to the UEFI boot selection. Your UEFI will then search for a suitable UEFI partition.

=== | == Software == | ||
As a rolling release, the Manjaro software is renewed regularly. You need enough file system space and a way to rollback if the update fails catastrophically. | |||
Even when you install or reconfigure a program, a lot can go wrong. Better safe than sorry. | |||
{{BoxWarning|Experienced system administrators say:| no backup - no pity}} | |||
=== Update === | |||
The closer you stay to updating, the fewer problems you will encounter. But that doesn't just mean installing the updates, but also reading the relevant thread beforehand. Carry out the necessary maintenance work after the update. Then a reboot should definitely follow. | |||
Being careless in these matters can work well for a long time, but it usually takes its toll at some point. The clean-up work usually takes a lot longer than the time saved. | |||
==== read ==== | |||
If the update thread is only a few hours old, it's better to wait a while. An update in the first 24 hours is only for people who can help themselves ;-) | |||
=== consider === | |||
Consider whether any of the problems described may occur to you | |||
If so, there is usually a link with instructions on what you should do. Please read this carefully. Then act accordingly. This will save you a lot of problems. | |||
=== update in tty === | |||
Do the update on the console (tty). The GUIs are all well and good, but there are update situations where the GUI might freeze. This is the first step to disaster. | |||
After the update has been completed, check again whether there are any errors or warnings. If so, read the message and see if there is a recommendation for action. If so, act. | |||
If you are unsure, copy the warning and ask on the Manjaro forum (before proceeding) | |||
*If you are afraid, check if the necessary files are there to boot. | |||
* kernel | |||
* initr | |||
* modules | |||

In no case older than 6 months. The desktop does not have to be the same as your usual desktop. For example, the version with XFCE (fast and robust) is well suited. | ||
