Hey guys,I was working on my Mac that I had installed Linux Mint onto as a completely independant partion from my Catalina partition for a school project that I was working on and was going to erase it once I was done.Well I finished doing what I wanted to do and had booted back into the MacOS in order to begin formating the Linux partition that I made. I opened up Disk Utility and began removing the Home Directory for Linux Mint, but then my Mac cut out and I was at the install screen for Linux while booted in MacOS. I susupected that this was unusual behavior and had shut down my Mac.Upon booting up my Mac while holding Option, my Macintosh HD was gone, but my EFI Boot for Linux was there. Upon booting into recovery per support article HT201314 About MacOS Recovery, instead my Mac booted into internet recovery.At this point in time, I'm reinstalling my OS and I doubt I'll be able to recover logs from my Mac about what happened for the feedback App, Regardless of that, anything important was already backed up, and all the data on my Mac is disposable as it should be using beta software, but my concern comes from the fact that the behavior that shouldn't have happened did happen.Now I know it is outside support guidelines to work with Linux, but my concern comes from the fact that if this was Windows using bootcamp, would it be possible the same behavior to occur? Ideas?
