I bricked my setup. Possibly ran 'rmmod achi'

Hi Guys,

I might have accidentally ran 'rmmod achi'.. Stupid mistake and now my system is not booting anymore. Crashed and reboot right after udev loads. Take a look at the following image:

Is there anyway of salvaging my system without needing to re-install? Thanks

Edit: Fixed the image link

Re: I bricked my setup. Possibly ran 'rmmod achi'

FYI - the command 'rmmod achi' unloads a module called 'achi'. It is not persistent i.e. the module is simply unloaded, not removed from your system, so reloading it, or at the most a reboot, would solve any problems caused by unloading it.

(Also, there is no module called 'achi'... )

You need to recall everything you did to your system between the last time it worked and the time it didn't.

Take a live CD, check /var/log/pacman.log for recent actions, chroot into arch and repair it with pacman's magic
