Unable to boot. interrupted update

Molefi22 · 2 April 2023 18:34

Hello

apologies if I’m still doing this incorrectly, please bear with me

I put my computer into hibernate during an update and when I tried opening it up it again I got a message saying something to the effect error /boot/vmlinuz-6-x86_64 not found. I followed the instructions I got from this thread. I essentially ran a chroot, pacman syu and a update-grub from an iso.

This solved the error however the system still wouldn’t get passed the loading screen. I ran an fsck on the partition because I got a different error dev/sdb3: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: RUN fsck manually, picture below.

I’m not sure if these are relevant but this is what I got when I ran a journalctl

Hello,

That is the perfect recipe to sabotage your system. Is equivalent with falling asleep while driving a car.

After finishing the update from chroot-ed system and running the fsck on your installed root partition with it unmounted, you still can’t boot your system?

Aragorn · 2 April 2023 18:50

Welcome to the forum!

Don’t Do That™!

That’s because the new kernels and initcpios are only installed in /boot at the end of the update process.

Anyway, see this HowTo below.

Molefi22 · 2 April 2023 18:55

No, it hangs on the loading screen

Nachlese · 2 April 2023 19:00

You could boot up any other linux system or use the one you installed from
and run the filesystem check on that drive partition from there
if that is what prevents your machine to boot up.

Molefi22 · 2 April 2023 19:01

I think I broke it beyond repairs

Molefi22 · 2 April 2023 19:04

I’ve already done that

brahma · 2 April 2023 20:35

from chroot run:
pacman -S zstd lib32-zstd --overwrite '*'
then update:
pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && pacman -Syyu
if there were no errors, post output from:

Hello,

Thank you for you assistance. My apologies for not being able to respond sooner, so this the output I get

post output from:

and do you use manjaro-chroot -a to chroot? if yes post output from it too

ok so exit chroot:
exit
install this:
sudo pacman -S arch-install-scripts
then mount this:
sudo mount /dev/sdc3 /mnt
and reinstall pacman + zstd:

sudo pacstrap -i /mnt pacman zstd lib32-zstd --overwrite '*'

if there were no errors, unmount:
sudo umount /dev/sdc3 /mnt
chroot again, and rerun update again:
pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && pacman -Syyu
if there are errors post them here, if not, post output from:
mhwd-kernel -li

Molefi22 · 3 April 2023 20:42

sudo mount /dev/sdc3/mnt                                                            ✔  3m 49s 

brahma · 3 April 2023 20:44

you have a typo there, the correct command is:
sudo mount /dev/sdc3 /mnt

and not:
sudo mount /dev/sdc3/mnt

no errors, and only one kernel. I use to have linux60 and 61
