My pc won't boot up after a pacman -Syu. I keep getting errors when trying to fix this and got quite stuck.
What happened:
- Yesterday I left my laptop running pacman -Syu.
- I did left it unplugged but I am quite sure (not 100%) that it had enough battery for the task.
- Today I turn it on and got an error saying that I'm missing vmlinuz-linux.
- I download a fresh arch iso and make my boot device.
- With my boot device, I get access to the system and find vmlinuz-linux in my boot drive right where it should be.
- Had db.lck file stuck in the system so deleted it and ran pacman -Syu and everything downloaded fine but nothing was fixed.
- Also made used grub-mkconfig again and it said it found vmlinuz-linux just fine.

"I am quite sure (not 100%) that I'm not pregnant" is a setup line for panic mode…
Had db.lck file stuck in the system
And you're gonna get a visit from the stork…
So this is what happened, time for the gender reveal:
file /mnt/boot/vmlinuz-linux
And try to "pacman -Sy linux" explicitly.
You might also want to check (from the chroot)
sudo LC_ALL=C pacman -Qkk | grep -v ', 0 altered files'
to see what mess your offspring has created there

And did it fix anything?
python: no mtree file
That's a problem, but rather not causing any "missing vmlinuz-linux" ones.
Can you link a screenshot of the original error in full context?

Actually it did, didn't seem to at first but it just ran out of power again and when I turned it on it it booted perfectly thank you so much
