Hi Guys!
Im very new to linux and Im in big trouble.
After rebooting I got this messages:
[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
...
[FAILED] Failed to mount /boot/efi.
...
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
Welcome to emergency mode!
after logging in as root I wrote this command:
# journalctl -xb
and after a lot of white lines there were some red ones:
...
Failed to lookup alias 'vboxdrv' : Function not implemented
...
Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
...
Failed to mount /boot/efi.
...
Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
...
Failed at step EXEC spawning /bin/plymouth: No such file or directory
...
The last thing I did before rebooting is installing laptop mode tools and made
# pacman -Syu
If this information is in any help, I have dell 7520 laptop and I installed
hybrid graphics as it is written in the Wiki.
This is the second time have this problem, the last time I reinstalled the Arch,
but it comes back like it is some ghost that hunting me.
Please H E L P !!!
Sorry for the long post and thanks for reading.

You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen.
Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary.

Could you post the actual output of
journalctl -xb
and not just a few selected lines that don't say a lot on their own? Put the output in code tags, please.

Hi cookies,
tanks for the reply.
I dont know how to use Arch in his current state,
Im writing this post on a different computer.
If u can guide me how to get to internet on Arch
and how to cut/paste the journalctl, I be more than happy to .
And also thanks for the code tags advice.
:)

Take a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … figuration and you should be able to get online.
and how to cut/paste the journalctl, I be more than happy to .
Just use this to redirect the output of journalctl to a file (named "output" in this example) like this
journalctl -xb > output
more on pipes here: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-4.html (it's part of a nice bash howto by the way).
Edit: yes, it's a nice howto, but it doesn't explain the ">", I'll go find some info and update my post.
Edit 2: Here it is: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO-3.html

That is not a pipe, it is a redirect.

I managed to create the output file with the journalctl infomation on it, but I cant get the internet connection.
In the https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … ice_Driver
I get stuck on the Device Driver, after I write
$ lspci -v
there is no kernel modules in the ethernet controller section.
I tried to insert usb memory stick, but the computer do not recognize it.
So I have the file but I cant do noting with it.

How have you tested this? With 'lsblk', lsusb or similar programs?
Offline
# lsblk
I have to go now, tomorrow I will continue saving my Arch.

Hi
Im trying to put the output file, file that was created with
journalctl -xb > output
to the usb stick. After the command
# lsblk
it shows that the system is recognized the usb stick as /dev/sdc1. So I make this commands
# mkdir -p /mnt/myusb
# mount -t vfat -o rw,users /dev/sda1 /mnt/myusb
and the system replies with
mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat'
the usb is actually a FAT32 device. Also, after
# blkid -o list -c /dev/null
I get the table of all devices and what I saw in the first line was
/dev/sda1 vfat (not mounted)
the /dev/sda1 is the boot partition, I have UEFI motherboard and during the install I did wrote this lines
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
maybe it has something to do with the total system disaster.
I also remembered know that before the last reboot dolphin didnt recognized the usb stick. I found this post about it https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1099423 it might be connected.

Did you install something before the reboot that ended in a disaster (a new kernel maybe? check /var/log/pacman.log for more info)? It looks like you have some serious issues with your kernel modules.
Since you can't mount the USB stick, you can either try and reformat the stick and create an ext2 file system this time (or whatever file system you happen to have for your mounted partitions), or you could just boot from a live cd (you should get internet running that way, too, and you could check for the necessary driver module for your NIC) and try booting the USB stick with the vfat file system.
I have UEFI motherboard and during the install I did wrote this lines
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
maybe it has something to do with the total system disaster.
That step is necessary and should not be the cause of your problems.
I also remembered know that before the last reboot dolphin didnt recognized the usb stick. I found this post about it https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 3#p1099423 it might be connected.
That post is connected to your situation before that reboot, yes. Unfortunately it doesn't help us much in the current situation.
