Hi,

I'd like to imagine that a fresh reinstall and re-writing over all of that would probably be the way to go, though I'm not sure how far into the installation you got...

Could you perhaps give any details on what you did during the installation? (although tbf it looks like, from how old your account is, you'd have much more experience than me)

Other than that I/anyone else have/has very little information to go off of for now...

airbus777neo · Yesterday 17:01:08

If you do believe you installed correctly, however, the most prominent issue I can imagine would be the case is hardware.

In order to check the disk health then you would have to insert a USB bootable medium, and then from there run

smartctl -a /dev/sda                  <replace sda with your disk name>

And then inspect the results from therein

(It feels awful to so confidently command whom I can assume is an arch veteran...)

Thanks bro I never face this kind of error before always I could find solution for my problem but at this I don't have any clues I did juts an upgrade I think this may related to groups or user don't know by the way smart say its fine everything on my drive

by the way smart say its fine everything on my drive

While I don't really think that this is a broken disk, please don't paraphrase, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

Fwwi, the "overall health status: passed" and an empty bag have about the value of the bag (ie. that line is meaningless)

don't know what to do just did a update

Do you get a rescue shell?
What's the output of "uname -a"?
The main issue is likely the failure to mount the HPFS (do you use that as your root partition??) and the most common cause is to boot a different kernel than installed, failing to load any on disk modules for the booting kernel.
The usual cause for that is to forget or fail to mount the /boot partition before installing the kernel.

In that case, boot the install iso, make sure everything is properly mounted into place, chroot into the system and re-install the kernel.

No

Dont Have shell to perform

i'm sure did correct before installing kernel i was on arch did upgrade and kernel installed

In that case, boot the install iso, make sure everything is properly mounted into place, chroot into the system and re-install the kernel.

I Did. mount root and boot reinstalled kernel but same error like image on First post

seth · Today 06:34:29

From the install iso:

lsblk -f | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

then make sure you've internet and arch-chroot into the installed system w/ the boot partition mounted into place

(df -h; cat /etc/fstab; pacman -Qs kernel; file /boot/vmlinuz-*; ls -l /boot) | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st
journalctl -b -1| curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st
LC_ALL=C pacman -Qkk 2>&1 | grep -v ', 0 altered files' | grep -v backup > /tmp/howbadisit.txt
cat /tmp/howbadisit.txt | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

Sorry, My bad...

Suppose I should've just left it as the install problem, and asked for more info. I was gonna mention something about issues mounting or the fstab (excuses), but...

At the end of the day I have loads to learn (since I literally got arch 2 weeks ago)

seth · Today 07:49:52

Sorry, My bad...

No, why?
In the end it could still be all down to the disk falling apart - the request to not paraphrase was for the OP, specifically w/ the assertion that "smart say its fine everything on my drive", cause that's typically a misreading (because of the misleading overall health assessment)
Rule of thumb: ebkac >> bug >> hardware defect (except if a cable is involved, then it's: "cable >>>>> ebkac >> bug >> hardware defect" )

airbus777neo · Today 08:00:24

ohhh ok.

Thanks

Is this Arch or Cachyos? If the latter you would need to ask here https://discuss.cachyos.org/

airbus777neo · Today 09:07:49

yeah I did notice that...

Why?

So is this cachyos, or blackarch, or a frankenstein collection of repos?
The last successful boot was on the - not updated - 6.13 cachyos kernel, which one are you trying to boot right now?
Does the other kernel boot?
Does the fallback image?

Edit: +b and also F5.

no its arch just have some cachyos packages i have one cachyos kernel and official arch before update both was working after update both don't work even with fallback

seth · Today 12:46:03

Ok, remove the "quiet" from the boot parameters, instead add "sysrq_always_enabled=1 systemd.unit=rescue.target"
See what of the failing boot you can preserve, ideally, if the root partition (which is just ext4) gets mounted, rebooting w/ the magic sysrq (the print key is usually the sysrq) and the entire alt+sysrq+r,e,i,s,u,b (give it a second between each shortcut) you can properly reboot and preserve the journal of the boot.

I fixed that by overwrite shadow package don't know why it was bugged now system load but have problem with desktop
