[Solved] Arch doesn't boot

Hello

I have a problem that I can't solved and I have no idea why. Here is what happen.
I had windows 10 tp and today it did an upgrade. Well after that I couldn't boot in arch complaining that root was a ntfs partition. I chroot inside of it and notice that a new partition was created...
Well I went through fstab and change accordantly to the new partitions. It seems that my root now is at sda5 instead of sda4 and so on. Well I change the fstab, but when I try to boot my arch again he stills tries to boot sda4, like there is no changes in fstab. But they are there, I checked it 2 times. Any tips?

Thanks.

You need to also change your boot loader configuration.

If you use persistent names you won't have to worry if the bus based names change.
