Yet Another Booting after interrupted update problem

Just running ‘update’ again wont necessarily fix anything.

This is the basic guide.

Which I thought provided some more steps than that … but it seems the only addition is ‘update-grub’, which may or may not even be present on newer systems.

It would also make sense to rebuild initramfs, so I will rehash the steps after chroot here;

pacman-mirrors -f
pacman -Syu
mkinitcpio -P
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

The final line is equal to ‘update-grub’.

I might suggest also checking /var/log/pacman.log to see where/when the interruption actually occurred.

(becuase you may have to cleanly reinstall certain packages)
