Start sudden failure: f1 respawning too fast

Hi,
Till yesterday I had a fully working and updated  Arch_X86_64/KDE  system (inc. pacman 4.0.1-4).
This morning I've tried a full upgrade (pacman -Syu) and:
1. Initially found dependency problems related to (as far as I remember) to one of the gcc libraries. (I removed that library and proceedeed upgrading)
2. A lot of missing or unstrusted. I've run the init key, yet the problem continues.

I decided to reboot intending to rerun pacman -Syu afterwards.
However my system won't boot anymore. It complains as follows:
1. can't open (no such file) libstdc++.so.6
2. "INIT: Id "f1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes."

That's it.

Please advise how to restore full functionality?

Thanks


Best regards,
Michael Badt

chroot using a live cd, and update from there. Also re-install gcc-libs

Thnaks,
I've xuccessfullt chrooted (from the last X86_64 net CD) yet I have no net access (ifconfig yields ONLY the local loopback).
And YES, I did copy my resolv.cong per the chroot wiki instraction.

Please advise

Re: Start sudden failure: f1 respawning too fast

Please disable signature checking, at least for now. And you shouldn't face the problem. Read the news here:

http://www.archlinux.org/news/pacman-4-moves-to-core/

In fact it's disabled in the default pacman.conf, so you must've enabled it yourself. Disable it and proceed to upgrade the system.
