so my hetzner vps is now doing this

i restored a backup from 19 hours ago and it's still doing this

looks like some weird mkinitcpio issue where my mkinitcpio.conf was reset? i fixed it and then found out the built initramfs and kernel weren't being copied to my efi boot partition correctly, so i fixed that. i'm back online, i just lost like the past 19 hours of data which is all told not the worst thing in the world i guess. the only thing i would have done differently knowing what i know now is i would have made a backup before trying to fix stuff, or i would have never restored the 19h ago.
