currently I do not get fixed the error … no reboot

thx for your tip … rename or copy from /boot/vmlinuz-linux58 to /boot/vmlinuz-5.8-x86_64

Something is not right with the hook, which copies the kernels to /boot, the names are wrong and subsequently mkinitcpio fails to build initramfs:

$ sudo mv /boot/vmlinuz-linux54 /boot/vmlinuz-5.4-x86_64

and afterwards reran:

$ sudo mkinitcpio -P && sudo update-grub

This results in unbootable systems otherwise!

During sudo mkinitcpio -P I also noticed an error which might causing potential issues

This error doesn’t exist when building initramfs-5.7

3 posts were split to a new topic: Why is manjaro-zsh-config overwriting a file in a home directory?

My system became unbootable as well. I had to revert to the btrfs-snapshot I made before the update.

Problem with Opera: freezes when clicking Opera button, right-clicking, odd font sizes. Can be partially worked around by enabling HWA (opera://settings/system).See here: Latest Update Broke the Opera UI | Opera forums.

My laptop will not boot after this update on kernel 5.8, not sure why. It is stuck at HP splash screen which always shows up before log in screen. TTY does not work.
Can’t put in inxi

I’ll try to boot from kernel 5.7 and see how that works.

I am all ears in helping to solve this problem (not sure where to look first).

rly?? see Post No. 2 …

I’ve to see about mkinitcpio. I deleted our overlay. Let me see what to fix.

My update showed none of these errors while updating (used terminal) so I wasn’t sure if it applied.

Pushed some more updates …

something wrong here , i have update mirrors to get update mkinitcpio
is it this error " `/" that should be " '/" ?

update : error name come from old mkinitcpio

sudo mkinitcpio -P

May be I am wrong, but I believe the mkinitcpio update is not fixing the initial problem.

The initial problem is that the new kernel packages linux54-5.4.67-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst and linux58-5.8.11-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst install kernel images with wrong names:

/boot/vmlinuz-5.4
/boot/vmlinuz-5.8

It is my understanding that they are not found even by the new mkinitcpio.

They should be renamed to

/boot/vmlinuz-5.4-x86_64
/boot/vmlinuz-5.8-x86_64

this come form /etc/mkinitcpio.d/linuxXY.preset
i have this 4.14 , 5.4 also 5.8

# mkinitcpio preset file for the 'linux54' package

ALL_config="/etc/mkinitcpio.conf"
ALL_kver="/boot/vmlinuz-5.4-x86_64"

PRESETS=('default' 'fallback')

#default_config="/etc/mkinitcpio.conf"
default_image="/boot/initramfs-5.4-x86_64.img"
#default_options=""

#fallback_config="/etc/mkinitcpio.conf"
fallback_image="/boot/initramfs-5.4-x86_64-fallback.img"
fallback_options="-S autodetect"

and if you have bad name vmlinuz

ls -lha vmlinuz*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5,8M 24 sept. 10:34 vmlinuz-419-x86_64
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6,2M 24 sept. 10:34 vmlinuz-54-x86_64
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6,5M 24 sept. 10:34 vmlinuz-58-x86_64

soluce :
suppress vmlinuz ( name bad )
redo
sudo pacman -S linuxNM

it’s ok for result mkinitcpio

Cannot confirm - kernels are being installed with their correct names here.

Apart from a couple dependency warnings (packages being installed prior to their dependencies. In my case I had to update cifs-utils and perl-libwww first), the update went smoothly.

Had the same problem, but this solved it thanks :slight_smile:
