So I’ve messed up by not formatting my partitions on installation and now things are buggy, dbus returns permission denied on starting is one of the prominent bugs at the moment

      Why? I chowned and chmod the mount points only (not recursively) and now the system is functioning correctly

          I can’t see a reason for it to fail since the root user was functioning just fine, shit got buggy as soon as other users tried to read from the fs

            Not sure about what permission changes you did, but my system has various permissions depending on the files or folders, so a general recursive change may give you a functioning system, but with broken security
