Keyboard and Ethernet card devices problem

Hi!!

I have an old Arch installation system and somehow I have managed to break the support of the keyboard (usb) and ethernet card.

I was trying to perform some upgrades and one of them was to install systemd over udev.

I did that and at the first reboot the system reaches the login screen (it's without X11 or any other graphics environment) but I cannot write on the screen anything with the keyboard.

Furthermore, while booting I can see on the console that the eth0 device cannot be found thus I do not have SSH access.

I 've tried to revert the changes and go back to udev. To do that I rebooted with a LiveCD and chroot to the partition. Used pacman to uninstall systemd and install udev again
but no matter what I am doing it still refuses to use the keyboard and the ethernet card.

This is a server and it's not easy at all to move the configuration, users, files etc. at a new machine right now.

Looking forward for your help.

Regards!

Re: Keyboard and Ethernet card devices problem

It seems that the problem was because I had installed kmod over module-init-tools.

Removing kmod and installing module-init-tools seems to solve this problem...
