So, after about a year or so i started my computer, and attempted to update the system via pacman -Syu. So, since this may pertain to this, the issue was, that i didn’t have enought space on my root partition to cache all 1209 packages, and install them afterwards, pacman wouldn’t let me. So i copied /cache/pacman to a harddisk i have installed in my computer, deleted /cahce/pacman, and made a sym-link ln -s /datadrive/cache/pacman pacman, in that location. I did pacman -Syu again, and everything seemed to go fine. After a while however, it ended like this:
( 220/1209) upgrading python-requests [############################################################################] 100%
( 221/1209) upgrading python-certifi [############################################################################] 100%
( 222/1209) upgrading pacman-mirrors [############################################################################] 100%

So yeah, i’m kinda stuck. How should i optimally go about fixing this? I still have a manjaro USB install stick, altough it is probably more than a year old. Internet connectivity, and GUI works fine on the computer right now, however i have not rebooted it yet.
So yeah, wish me luck and i hope that someone can help me
