Interesting. This means that if I ruin my grub I soft bricked the PC. As long as it's recoverable easily, I wouldn't consider that 'bricking'.

> Could you clarify what you mean by this not sounding like you have root access?

I just meant that if the device is no longer usable, you don't control it (as root). But you clarified that soft-brick is like a boot problem which, if easily fixable, isn't a problem.

Heh, small world.
