Bootup sequence broken

Finally figured this one out

The key command was systemctl --type swap

This let me know exactly what to do, and chatgpt helped me know to mask this instead of disable it since I was not understanding that

Even after switching swap over to partition 9 in fstab it still wasn’t working, which means that the swap is probably messed up somehow, probably due to that windows installation breaking it somehow.

I was also able to figure out how to fix swap. My partitions had been labeled incorrectly, fixed that with cfdisk, and then used mkswap to fix the partition itself.
