Looks successful. Youāve got a kernel now. And it automatically ran mkinitcpio. What about
sudo update-grub
Note:
Besides packagekit. Which should be removed. But we will get to that in a minute.

I think thats maybe the the USB?
Internal?
Anyhoo ā¦ this preliminary stuff might be about right.
You can get out of chroot with
exit
Go ahead and try a normal boot now.
Still no irq handler for vector error 
is it possible this is related to the new 5xx nvidia drivers? this error only occured after I package updated after all summer and I know nvidia drivers have a habit of breaking manjaro.
Then I also wonder about
mhwd -l -li
pacman -Qs nvidia
Ok let me run those, before hand though, currently my kernel module driver is 530.41.03 as output by cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version whereas my current drvier version is 535.86.05 as output by nvidia-settings --help. this is still in chroot of course
Output for both of these:

I guess you can try reinstalling nvidia:
sudo mhwd -f -i pci video-nvidia
And if that doesnt work I suppose you could try the earlier series.
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-470xx
We still havent seen an inxi or anything so I dont know what card it is so I dont know how reasonable any of the drivers are for it.
Noteā¦
This should be gone, and probably indicates you have pacnew files to deal with.
As for card:
lspci -v | grep VGA
lspci: Unable to load libkmod resources: error -2
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GA104 [GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Lite Hash Rate] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Also explain pacnew files and how or why I need to deal with them?
The link explains it.
They are files you need to manually review.
It was noticeable because the community repo does not exist anymore, and you likely have a pacman.conf.pacnew file that reflects that.
Quick question, do you only have one nvme drive in your computer or do you have more hard drives?
Ok so in my boot directory for my m.2 drive (my drive im rescuing) the boot folder includes linux62. In the grub boot menu the boot options specify linux6.1 which exists in my /mnt/ directory. How do I fix this?
Just the one 1TB nvme m.2 drive
so your boot partition is also on the nvme.
what is output of lsblk
The reason I ask is because itās strange that the root would end up before the boot as indicated by your logs.

That seems to be from live. I was under the impression that you had rebooted and are now trying to fix your nvidia?
And it seems there is no boot partition mounted (or existing)
nvme0n1p1 is my m.2 drive, nvme0n1p2 is the swap partition on the same drive. My live boot drive is the sda device
