Hey everybody ! I had a couple of week a big update on Manjaro and there was an issue. I thought I could see what was wrong the next day but when I started the computer this is what I had:
error: file ‘/boot/vmlinuz-5.12-x86_64’ not found
error: you need to load the kernel first.
I tried what I saw on others topics like this with a USB boot:
[manjaro manjaro]# pacman -Syy
:: Synchronizing package databases...

And some others but until now none of them worked…
If somebody know what to do I’m listening haha
Thank !
PS: I hope you understand because I’m not that good in english
- pacman-mirrors -f5
- Can you try installing kernel 5.10 ?
The mirror mirror.philpot.de does not exist.
You should change the mirrorlist.

I tried several time to install linux510 but there was always something wrong at the end. Now I have this:

I don’t know… Maybe even my USB boot has a problem ?
Thank to try to help me ! 
Edit: ok it seems to work again:

:: installing zfs-utils (2.0.4-1) breaks dependency 'zfs-utils=0.8.4' required by linux56-zfs
Edit 2: If it helps:
[manjaro manjaro]# mhwd-kernel -li
Currently running: 5.6.15-1-MANJARO (linux56)
The following kernels are installed in your system:
* linux56
I tried once to delete linux56 after installing linux510 but I had something like “You can’t delete your current linux”
- Can you post fdisk -l and blkid ?
- You can repair the superblock on sda4 by copying the backup superblock.
Please begin with 1. and 2.
There seems much damage on your system.
You should install kernel 5.10 and another backup kernel. Like kernel 5.4.
With fdisk -l
