No it didn't. Theres a chance it bricked one component, but likely what happened is 1 you made a mistake and a component died. 2 a component just happened to die. I've built a lot of computers and installed os countless times (distro hopper with 25 years Linux time)

Yes it corrupted the EFI bootloader. Every update damaged the install and forced me to reformat and recover my data. Then one update hung and it never turned back on. Now it won’t even boot to install from USB. Just dead and stuck rebooting every 5 seconds.

I guess the dead computer in my garage isn’t dead cuz you installed Linux a bunch. GFY. I’m a noob who can’t navigate my way around a shell…
