[SOLVED] System won't boot - different kernel versions

Hello everyone,
I have just made full system upgrade and Icant bool the system -> can't mount /boot/efi because vfat filesystem is not known.

I am using grub, I fixed it but the problem remains.

I have found out that output of 'uname -r'  shows kernel version: 3.17.3-1-ARCH and 'pacman -Q | grep linux' shows linux 3.18.2-2. What should I do to load 3.18.2-2?

I think that it is "the root" of my problem,isn't it? Can you help me please?

Have you rebooted?

If you still cannot boot (your post is a little unclear on this), use (arch-)chroot from the live .iso and post the output of:

# parted -l
lsblk -f

Re: [SOLVED] System won't boot - different kernel versions

Perhaps your /boot wasn't mounted when you were upgrading. In this case you'd have a newer kernel on the root partition in /boot and an older one on the boot one - you could move it from one to the other (at least it's what it would have looked like on BIOS systems).

Is kernel custom? If it is, have you made it vfat aware?
