System Not Booting After systemd Update [Solved]
hi,
After upgrading my system this morning, i got the following error upon reboot
[5.550095] systemd[1]: segfault at 7d ip b755b7b7 sp bf9798b8 error 4 in libc-2.16.so[b74dc000+1a4000]
[5.550399] systemd[1]: caught <SEGV> , core dump failed.Checking the log, showed that systemd was updated. i have checked the net for possible solutions, but no one has reported it. Can somebody help?

Downgrade package
Boot with live media
arch-chroot /mnt
pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/systemd-189-4-i686.pkg.tar.xz

...and disable [testing] repositories. (BTW, why did you enable [testing] in the first place?)

Re: System Not Booting After systemd Update [Solved]
No need for live media. i have sysvnit on fallback. in fact in am writing on it. i have already downgraded it.
As for [testing], guess i want to live on the edge.
Thanks.

Re: System Not Booting After systemd Update [Solved]
Since systemd-191 is in testing, a more appropriate place to discuss it is the testing repo subforum.
I guess a mod will move it there soon.
I can confirm the same issue with systemd-191 on i686.
Best thing to do is to report it on the bugtracker ... don't you think?

Re: System Not Booting After systemd Update [Solved]
No problems with the upgrade here, on x86_64 - maybe the problem is in the i686 package only.

Re: System Not Booting After systemd Update [Solved]
"Bug affects only x86 systems" is meaningless - you need to specify i686.
