unknown filesystem type 'nilfs2'

Got this error
Module nilfs2 packed to initrd via MODULES='nilfs2' in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf.
How can I fix this?

Depends on what you want to do.

Are you going to use nilfs2 or not?

Do you have /use/lib/modules/x.x.x.y-ARCH/fs/nilfa2/nilfs2.ko.gz

Bad attitude AND bad english.... awesome.

fly-away, it is not clear at all from your first post that you actually want to use nilfs2, so calm down and be grateful that people are responding to you.

Now - use lsinitcpio to confirm that the module is actually in your initramfs image.

Re: unknown filesystem type 'nilfs2'

A few questions....

What exactly was the problem to begin with? 
It was a bit unclear as to whether ot not you wanted or did not wnat nilfs2 in your initramfs, or if it was simply throwing some kind of error at you or what.

What did you do to fix it? 
Simply saying that you fixed it and then ending the thread discussion is not very cool.  It does nothing for the community, or future users in search of help.  So please indicate what you did to fix the problem.

If it is solved, could you mark the thread as such?
Edit the first post and prepend [Solved] to the title.  This will help those future seekers of help in finding threads that actually have solutions.  Though I would strongly encourage you to actually put a solution before doing this.  I guess I would also encourage you to clarify the question as well.
