to see all the messages during boot, hit ESC after the system has started booting -
you might see more and that might not be the actual error
When I looked up the error you stated:
I found this:
more specifically this post:
Failed to start Virtual console Setup error message - #23 by Nachlese
apparently my advice there solved the problem back then.
So:
what is the content of:
/etc/vconsole.conf
and, perhaps related:
what is the content of /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
the HOOKS line in particular
?
these PATHs are from within chroot
I have no idea what:
could mean or what could have caused it
Perhaps it is also time for you to provide hardware info:
inxi -zv8
but this one not from within chroot, please
copy/paste, the format using </>
