Last night I updated my Samsung laptop with no issues and the pacman log looks normal. When I restarted the system it locked up right at boot with the ':: running early hook [udev]' message at the top of the screen. I checked the arch site and saw the intel-ucode change and I'm running on an Intel i7 Core Mobile Processor so I booted from my archboot stick and chroot into the system. I installed the intel-ucode update and the image is in /boot. I edited my /ext/grub.d/10_linux file so that it would add it to the initrd list. I rebuilt my grub conf file and intel-ucode.img is in the correct location in front of the initramfs-linux.img in grub.conf . I restarted the system and nothing changed. I have a efi motherboard and was wondering if that might cause a problem. Right now I'm out of ideas of what it might be. Any help would be appreciated.

I have the same problem. Have you found any solution?

Same issue here, Samsung ultrabook NP740U3E with i5.
Did the intel-ucode steps but still gets stuck after
'Started udev Kernel Device Manager.
Mounted Temporary /etc/pacman.d/gnupg directory.'

Could it be some problem with Samsung hardware. The Laptop in question is NP530UE4E. Could it be the Radeon Driver or sth like that.

Mine's got Intel HD graphics so seems unrelated.

Ok. It has happened for now only on the laptop, my desktop has survived the update
Some probable and relevant differences are no uefi, nvidia and older intel cpu.

Hi guys,
I think this is same issue here (Samsung NP530U4E with Intel i5 and Intel HD Graphics 4000). Stucked at early hook lvm2 for me.
Here is the topic i opened. Should be the same issue.
Moreover, I updated the bios to the last version. Didn't change anything .

The only way i've found to get things to work again is to downgrade to kernel 3.16 (for now)...

Ok I've think I found the Problem. There is a bug already for the Intel Card (Arch and upstream) https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42505
So for now the only solution probably is to downgrade to 3.16 and wait

I just downgraded the kernel to 3.16 and laptop works fine. I guess the only solution is to wait until the bug is fixed.
BTW, this is what I'm running on:
Samsung ATIV Book 4
NP470R5E K02UB
Intel i7 3537U

This is strange...it seems related to i915 module but also seems to affect ONLY Samsung laptops =/. Anyone would get an explanation about that ? Is there any specific implementation of i915 for Samsung laptops ?
Offline
The patch in the kernel bug fixes it for me (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86551#c6).

Downgraded kernel to 3.16.4-1 for now and working fine.

I have a similar bug but it's a random bug and I have an ati radeon HD4650 Pcie, not an intel graphic card
