[SOLVED] Error upgrading to kernel linux-3.13.5-1

I have upgrading to kernel linux-3.13.5-1 right now and below errors appears:

atención: alerta producida mientras se extraía boot/vmlinuz-linux (Can't create '/boot/vmlinuz-linux')
>>> Updating module dependencies. Please wait ...
depmod: ERROR: Module 'hci_vhci' has devname (vhci) but lacks major and minor information. Ignoring.
>>> Generating initial ramdisk, using mkinitcpio.  Please wait...
==> Building image from preset: /etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset: 'default'
  -> -k /boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux.img
==> ERROR: specified kernel image does not exist: `/boot/vmlinuz-linux'
==> Building image from preset: /etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset: 'fallback'
  -> -k /boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img -S autodetect
==> ERROR: specified kernel image does not exist: `/boot/vmlinuz-linux'

How to solve this?

If I try:

sudo mkinitcpio -p linux

same error appears.

Is your /boot mounted correctly?

If I try:

sudo mkinitcpio -p linux

same error appears.

My boot partition was not mounted! so I have mounted and I have executed again:

sudo mkinitcpio -p linux

now I get below error:

My /boot was not mounted. After mounting it, below posted error appears.

Is your /boot full, or mounted read-only?

Prepend commands with LC_ALL=C to get English output, in case something has been lost in the translation. The output of 'df -h /boot' may be useful too.

Try reinstalling the kernel 'pacman -S linux'.
What's the output of 'ls /lib/modules/'?

By performing 'pacman -S linux' it works. Thanks!

Only one warning appears:

depmod: ERROR: Module 'hci_vhci' has devname (vhci) but lacks major and minor information. Ignoring.

As I have read in the link posted above it is necessary to share usb over a network. But is it necessary for virtualization?

A lot of thanks again Karol!
