So it’s not just me then… This is causing chaos and raises significant questions about continued use if it can be destabilised by their core updates with no perceivable way back?
How do you restore an operable system without a GUI to recover from?
I’ve managed to scp the tarball onto another computer but how do I recover from it?
Posting the same rant on multiple threads only makes it less likely that anyone wants to help.
As I said from the other thread- If an update bricked your installation, reinstall Home Assistant as if it is new, then restore from your most recent backup.
It turned out to be an errant entry in the recorder.yaml of and entry that never before prevented booting, but after the update I’m guessing tolerances were reduced.
My other post was answered and I was taken through some error logs and finally found the offending reference.
