Dualboot Linux/Windows no longer works Latest update has caused Linux to stop working

Hi all since the latest insider update Linux doesn't seem to work on my Dualbooted W11/SteamOS SteamdeckOLED i am not sure what steps i can take on the Software side as Linux doesnt want to boot what so ever this has only happened since the latest version of Windows Security updates was installed?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated

TIA

    If you see any specific error messages when trying to boot Linux, those messages can provide clues about what's wrong. Take note of them and look for solutions based on the error codes.

      I was able to fix it it seems that WIndows 11 24h2 broke the Partition Table after alot of researching Linux stuff i wasn't too good with lol i was able to rebuild the Partition Table and both OS Windows 11 24h2 and Steam OS have been functioning fine since just when i updated Windows 11 24H2 the Partition Table was Corrupted and needed rebuilding after that both where working fine
