That's not an error. That's the boot menu. You probably hit a button while it was starting. It allows you to enter different boot options or when you have multiple operating systems installed you can choose which one to start.

Just select the first entry and hit enter.

    What's the difference between the first two? Ostree:0 and Ostree:1

    Ah, didn't notice that. I'm not super familiar with Bazzite but it essentially has two versions of the operating system. Updates are written to wherever you currently are not. That way if something broke with the system you could go back to the working version.

    No idea how you can find out which the "current" version is supposed to be. Probably still the first one in the list. Either way it shouldn't matter so much because an update and a reboot should put you into the right one.

    Ye, it's weird. Apparently my Asus bios changes my secure boot mode back to default (windows uefi) whenever it updates the bios...

    check your laptop battery health. Asus laptops will randomly set the bios options back to default settings if the battery is causing issues or dying.

    This isn’t an error, it’s the GRUB boot menu

    tl;dr is just use your arrow keys to select the top option and hit enter, and you’ll be fine
