Hi,
I am using Manjaro from VirtualBox, my host system is Windows 10. I had problems upgrading the system using the GUI, then I tried with the terminal and I saw:
[angelc@manjaro ~]$ sudo pacman -Syu
[sudo] password for angelc:

So I followed other post (don’t remember where I saw it) and did:
sudo rm -f /var/lib/pacman/sync/*
sudo pacman -Syyu
then, I could upgrade, but I saw:

this seems to be a similar problem to /t/black-screen-error-after-kernel-version-change/65989/6
the information provided in that post, in my case is:

[angelc@manjaro ~]$
[angelc@manjaro ~]$
[angelc@manjaro ~]$ sudo mhwd-kernel -li
Currently running: 5.15.7-1-MANJARO (linux515)
The following kernels are installed in your system:
* linux515
[angelc@manjaro ~]$ sudo ls /etc/mkinitcpio.d/*.preset
/etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux515.preset
when I restart, after the upgrade, the machine takes me to a blue memtest screen, it seems unable to find the kernel. Given that I am using a virtual machine, I can take a snapshot before restarting and get back to the point after the upgrade, BTW I also have a snapshot before the upgrade and another before the rm -f /var/lib/pacman/sync/* line. I am not sure if what was done in the post above also would apply to me.
Cheers.
