From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I chose sysremd, I didn't have time to fix the issue as I needed my laptop for work so I just did a clean install of everything once again. I think I will keep trying Fedora but I will read the documentation of EOS first so I can understand what I'm doing, I can't afford to make the same mistake again lol. I think what happened is that I accidentally erased the Windows EFI partition somehow and that's why it was not going in.
Is there an actual difference between those? Is one better than the other or it's just the OS giving options?
I am not a power user so I dont know much. From what I gather l, grub is more configurable and also easier to configure but is also more likely to break. Systemd-boot on other hand is more robust from what I read but less configurable and harder to configure. You can do things like set booting into btrfs snapshot using grub that I think you can't with systemd-boot. Again i am no expert so parts of this might be outdated or wrong. Better to ask a more experienced user
