Mmh… :face_with_monocle:
Just to be sure… When did you install Manjaro? And since when have you not updated your system?

Because your kernel is old as time, and this “version” of Manjaro is from 2017…

Unless you somewhat downloaded recently a 4 years old iso, you try to update a 4 years old Manjaro system.

In any cases, stop.
Download a recent iso, backup your files and reinstall. A rolling release must be updated regularly.

hello
i was looking for a distro which will work on my 32bit samsung x420 and i found this x86-64 to download
i installed it yesterday and had 3 notifications

  1. if home/ben/Downloads was installed, if not use pacman-services
  2. more than 1000 updates
    and
  3. kernel update, please
    maybe its not possible to use manjaro on 32bit
    really i was looking for deepin os in 32bit, seems impossible but there is the option of manjaro deepin…
    so i went for it

Manjaro has got no 32 bit compatibility for some years now.

Do a forum search, there are related topics presenting alternatives, such as 32 bit Arch Linux.

Edit: just did, take a look at https://archlinux32.org by example.

ooooh what a shame
i will have a look around
thanks a lot so i look into your link
regards

While it technically should be possible to update such old installation - it requires a very knowledgable user to complete it.

You installed Manjaro using a very - very old ISO - you should have used the most recent version linked from the manjaro.org web

Then your system is not 32-bit but 64-bit and will work with the latest Manjaro ISO
