[SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules after upgrade

Hey everyone
after upgrading my system (sudo pacman -Syu) I got a "Failed to start Load Kernel Modules" while booting.
I fixed this by using following command with live Arch on usb: pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-4.15.14-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

output of systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service:

* systemd-modules-load.service - Load Kernel Modules

Is there anything I could do to upgrade and fix this problem?

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules after upgrade

So you're running inside of VirtualBox? What kernel did you upgrade to and what virtualbox module package are you running?

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules after upgrade

If you are not running the system inside virtualbox why did you install virtualbox-guest-dkms?

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules after upgrade

Okay, but why do you think you need modules that are only appropriate if you are running as an guest under Virtualbox?
Why did you configure it in that way?

Edit: too slow

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules after upgrade

If you're not running in VirtualBox, why do you have the VirtualBox guest modules installed?

from your log:

dkms install vboxguest/5.2.8_OSE -k 4.15.15-1-ARCH

Then why do you have the VirtualBox guest modules installed and configured in modules-load.d?

How did you install Arch?

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules after upgrade

Start with pacman -Rs vboxguest

Then, reboot, and lets see if there are any residual effects.

because there's no package named vboxguest, uninstall the actual package that you installed.
