Re: Broke my install

Did you follow try running the suggested instructions so that the system could tell you what was wrong? The outputs from those would be helpful.

Also, telling us what was upgrading from the most recent entries of /var/log/pacman.log would be helpful too.

How about describing the actual issue instead of posting screenshots which provide no value to anyone but you? It makes this topic impossible to follow when the images disappear

I ran pacman -Syu and then could no longer boot arch... simples

Okay I'll try doing that but I can only post the results via image I think because it's my only PC.

I'll update thread with results later.

Cheers!

Re: Broke my install

Hello, Where can I find the log that is generated from that command in my filesystem?

journalctl -xb

I tried to take pictures but it was like 20 pictures worth.

If you mean you want to upload it somewhere; just pipe it to a file like this:

journalctl -b>file
