Can no longer boot

I restarted my Arch install today and now I get stuck on a screen with just a flickering cursor during boot. I've tried accessing TTY but it instantly switches back to the screen I was on before. Does anyone have any idea how I might be able to fix this?

Re: Can no longer boot

sounds like there is an issue with your graphical.target failing and retrying constantly, try setting 'systemd.unit=multi-user.target ' as a kernel parameter so you can log into a tty and get some logs that should pinpoint the issue.

EDIT: the first link was wrong, i have fixed it now
