System froze during kernel update, now not booting

I solved the D-bus error by installing it from the other provider.

What does that mean?

Now, however, I have no network interfaces when booting into Manjaro. Wifi doesn’t work and it doesn’t recognize any networks at all.

Linux Firmware differences

As a temporary solution, if some of the above posts are accurate, you can downgrade the firmware package. This should be considered safe in this scenario because of the reports but also because the difference is really the compression. wait a tic. Hey so. Just wondering. Since the issue is the compression… Do you have zstd package?

In which case an update is incoming, as mentioned there.
But if you really really need it now you can temporarily follow the downgrade instructions there.

Or if you have no way to download packages then you can use pacman with the cache directly via something like

sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-firmware-20240409.1addd7dc-any.pkg.tar.zst
