From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Okay, too bad, thanks for trying. Nvidia apparently is a pain with Linux currently. Years ago it was the opposite, people were told to go for Nvidia.
With Ventoy https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html you can put lots of Linux iso images on one usb stick which can save you some time. For example try OpenSuse https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_drivers
@lemmyreader
Thank you for the suggestion, I really do appreciate anyone who could have a clue what could go wrong and takes the time trying to help me out.
Yeah, Ventoy is the latest I had to burn the ISOs on the USB and stayed with it since :)
You could try this The OP installed the drivers from an older iso and then upgraded. Manjaro Linux is not very much liked by many but you could give it a try. If it works you can go for plain Arch or EndeavourOS. From what I found the closed source Nvidia driver exist since 2022 so don't use an iso that is too old :-)
ok took me 3 days to test, apologies :D
but unfortunately, no, doesn't work. Even the "old" iso stucks at the exact same position with the exact same behavior :(
