[Solved]Init fails after system upgrade

Hi, i just issued sudo pacman -Suy and it upgraded some packages along with pacman. After this i did a reboot and i get an "enter runlevel" message. No matter what i try (3,5) i get "No more processes left in this runlevel" and nothing happens. If i try S lever i get a root promt but everything is read-only and my inittab is empty. what can i do to save my system?

Thank you all

Re: [Solved]Init fails after system upgrade

I solved my problem by booting arch netinstall, mounting my root partition amd replacing the empty inittab with the one provided by arch netinstall.
I hope it helps someone.

Thanks for you time and space
