This morning I tried to play a game on my steam deck and it froze so I did a force restart then the boot screen was there for 12 minutes so I went and got the recovery USB I have then the reimage said the partition was altered so I got a SD card and put the recovery ISO on there using Rufus and now it’s not working at all
Any advice?

It’s absolutely unfortunate how many people are having this issue and there’s no information to be found because the device is so new… I’m heartbroken rn. Had so many games downloaded on my lcd 2TB deck, carried it over and wouldn’t even boot properly and boot looped, tried USB drive recovery and I get this, tried wipping my ssd on my own thinking that was the issue. Nope. I had an older recovery image on my pc that had “recovery” and not “repair” and NEITHER are working. Tried 2 different USB drives, 128gb USB C 3.0 and a 16gb USB A 2.0, wont even pick up the USB c drive and I get this message when trying the basic USB a 2.0.
By any chance did you find out a solution?
Yea the way I got it fixed was by installing Linux mint and that overrides all the partitions on the drive and then using the steamOS recovery image which then deletes and overrides Linux mint.
I have LCD version TLDR install a different OS then Install steamOS There may be a better way just this way worked for meMy guess for this reason is that something changes in hardware, a update to the software or a change in the bios and steamOS just doesn’t like that
