After upgrading from linux 3.19.3-3 to 4.0.1-1 I've been having a bit of an issue. At that same time I upgraded readline (6.3.006-1 → 6.3.008-1), linux-firmware (20150206.17657c3-1 → 20150410.ec89525-1), nvidia (349.16-1 → 349.16-2) , wpa_suplican (2.4-1 → 1:2.3-1), and arpack (3.1.5-1 → 3.2.0-1). There may be some typos there since I'm copying by hand. Normally this wouldn't be much of a problem because I have been, priory to a few weeks ago, really good about back ups and would just roll my OS back 15 minutes. But things like that tend to fly out the window when the semester gets heavy. My last snapshot was on May 22nd, which I could still use, but would rather not. Also, it seems like a good idea to try to actual fix things for a change.
[edit] I should mention that this upgrade was run April 30th.[/edit]
When I finished booting the system after the upgrade, I got an error message during boot “systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.” When it finished booting I run “dmesg -l err” to confirm that I'm not having a bad day dream or something. I'm also still seeing the errors that I described in this thread. Don't know if the two are related. I also noticed, when I was logging in, that it said that my stystem was still using the old kernel. Indeed, according to “uname -r” I'm still using 3.19.3-3-ARCH.
The closest thing to experience I have with this is when I forget to mount /boot before upgrading linux, so I made sure /boot was mounted and rand “sudo pacman -S linux” to reinstall, but this didn't help. Just to check I ran “ls /lib/modules” and see the directorys “4.0.1-1-ARCH” and “extramodules-4.0-ARCH” as I would expect after a succesful upgrade of the kernel.
Running “systemctl –failed, shows that in addition to systemd-modules-load.service, lm_sensors.service has also failed. I somehow expect lm_sensors depends on systemd-modules-load. I tried “systemctl restart systemd-modules-load”, but was rewarded with a message telling me that it failed. The “journalctl -xe” log has the lines
systemd[1]: system-modules-load[1799]: Failed to look up alias 'sg': Function not implemented
systemd[1]: system-modules-load[1799]: Failed to look up alias 'nfs': Function not implemented
Looking at the Wiki for Systemd under troubleshooting it actually has an example of trying to work through this exact issue. Following that I tried
journalctl _PID=1799
systemd[1]: system-modules-load[1799]: Failed to look up alias 'sg': Function not implemented
systemd[1]: system-modules-load[1799]: Failed to look up alias 'nfs': Function not implemented
which I already mentioned. At this point that bit of the Wiki stopped being useful.
Looking up on Google Failed to look up alias 'nfs': Function not implemented returned this thread from two years ago. Running “lsmod |grep sg” or $lsmod |grep nfs” returns nothing, but it also returns nothing on this laptop I'm using as well, so I don't imagine that is useful. Also, “# grep nfs /lib/modules/4.0.1-1-ARCH/modules.alias” returns a “Nosuch file or directory” error.
Searching for something on 'sg' turned up https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=165361, which was also not useful.
As a sort of last resort I tried https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Do … the_kernel
I reboot and boot into my fallback installation, running 3.19.3-3, mount the partition with my main Arch on it, and arch-chroot into it.
I downgraded linux, and nvidia, exited chroot, and rebooted hoping to the Great Bacon that I didn't do anything too damaging. After all, my back ups are more than a week out of date.
This worked. I'm still getting those annyoing (they are only annoying right?) error messages I mentioned earlier. My system seems fine, if somewhat out of date.
Still, the question remains, “why did that happen, and how do I actually fix it?”
[edit2=solution]
There were two problems. First, my grub.cfg entry was pointing to the wrong UUID. I fixed this by regenerating it. Then I noticed the UUID in the grub menu itself (during the boot prosses) did not match what was in grub.cfg. To fix this I reinstalled grub.

Unmount /boot, is there anything in that dir? Post your partition layout and bootloader config.

There are three boot directories on my system, one of which should be "inactive". The first one is located in aroot/arch/boot. That is its location relative to the partition. It is a directory in the subvolume arch, on partition labeled aroot. It is a fully functional, albeit out dated, /boot. Due to some experimentation back in January I moved it to raid1/boot, where boot is a subvolume of partition raid1. At some point this summer I intend on moving it back. This would be the the third /boot on my computer. The second is a directory on the partition fallback. Only the second and third are up to date.

That's a bit...insane? I'm guessing your bootloader is looking at the wrong partition or subvol?
Online
I don't think so. If that were the case, it wouldn't be booting now either since the old boot directory has a Linux 3.18 initial RAM images.
Also could you expound upon "insane"?
[edit] I'm running a system upgrade on my fall back installation. This doesn't have any special partitioning scheme what so ever. Everything, even /home, is on the same Ext4 partition. Let's see what that does.
[edit2] Both main and fall back installation boot perfectly after a full system upgrade of fall back. I also completely wiped the remnants of the old boot directory, and again, no ill effects.

Insane as in I've never seen a more complex partition/subvol layout, and I've seen some doozies back when we were using 2-4GB HDDs all over.
The bootloader is obviously still finding the old kernel image somewhere. With that layout, where is anybody's guess. Like I said, in my first post, post your bootloader config.
Online
Yeah. There is an actual reason for that. I like to create new user accounts for myself, but I don't want copy/move stuff that is just data. If i wanted I could just change the mount points and chown it. That and some things are mounted in my home directory that I want to go faster than others, or don't care about redundancy. If you wish to make suggests to clear that up, I'm open to them.
As for the boot configurations, sorry about that. I over looked that.
below is from /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

I just remembered something. I had some nasty corruption in aroot and about 3 weeks ago I rsynced from backup. I still have a partition (exactly 1) named aroot-old. Given my issues with this as well as my problem with Systemd complaining about drive paths by label, I don't feel comfortable deleting that partition quite yet.

OK, assuming you're using the "Arch Linux" entry, it appears that it's looking in a /boot dir on hd2,msdos2(UUID dfa989d8-edac-4c7e-b6fc-45237e6a0ebc, probably sdc2?). The fact that it's in a /boot dir tells me that it's not loading from a dedicated boot partition.

I had the same issues, but I solved it. Turns out that AMD Catalyst was requiring the kernel for some reason, so I had to uninstall it, installing the mesa drivers instead.
Try attempting to uninstall the linux kernel, if it has anything dependent on it, that might need to be uninstalled.
Hope that helps you!

coolsa, that is a completely different issue.

Well, I took snapshots, not back ups but they work well enough for this, and rsynced /boot/ to where it use to be, moved/renamed the subvolume boot, and commented out the appropriate line in fstab. I also deleted that other /boot from before. I unmount /boot, and regenerate my grub.cfg. If my machine still boots, I'll try for an upgrade.
grub.cfg now looks like

It seems as if the lines you mentioned, Scimmia, have changed. I'll take that as a good sign.
[edit] System still boots. Trying for the upgrade.
[edit2] Still can't use Linux 4.0. I'm getting the same errors as before.
[edit3] Successfully downgraded.
[edit4] I looked through /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and there isn't anything in there that isn't in my laptop's. I don't know if this will help, but here is the output of "pacman -Q"

[edit5] My /etc/modules-load.d directory is empty by the way, and "sudo /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load" returns nothing. Note, this is all while running Linux 3.19, but I believe it should demonstrate that I don't have any special modules running. Or so I believe.

This thread is like pulling teeth. Instead of looking at the partition to see what's going on, you do all kinds of random crap and see what happens?
Bottom line: Figure out where your bootloader is getting the old kernel image. Then come back.

I'm sorry if it seems like I'm posting random garbage. It's my attempt at being useful while I wait for a reply.
Grub is using the correct boot directory.

[edit] aroot is the btrfs volume that has my Arch installation, which is where the boot directory is.
[edit2] To clarify, arch is a subvolume of aroot, and contains the directory boot.
[edit3] Also, grub was using the wrong boot directory.

Alright, so it is now looking at "aroot" under /arch/boot/; Since root is mounted as the arch subvol, it does appear to be looking at your root filesystem under /boot. When you do an upgrade what files are in that dir? Use the "file" command to identify the kernel.
Edit: and when I was talking about random crap, I wasn't talking about what you were posting, I was talking about this:
Well, I took snapshots, not back ups but they work well enough for this, and rsynced /boot/ to where it use to be, moved/renamed the subvolume boot, and commented out the appropriate line in fstab. I also deleted that other /boot from before. I unmount /boot, and regenerate my grub.cfg. If my machine still boots, I'll try for an upgrade.
Where you should have just taken a look at the partition mentioned to see what it was, you went off the deep end here.

My thoughts with that bit was that if it was using old-aroot's boot directory (which it was for some reason), that should fix it (which it did). Besides, I've been meaning to revert that change for a month now. I had to clean that mess up eventually, and eventually turned out to be this morning.
As for using file to find the kernel version. I'm stuck. I went through the man pages trying the various options, but the best I've gotten out of it is
$ file -z initramfs-linux.img
initramfs-linux.img: ASCII cpio archive (SVR4 with no CRC) (gzip compressed data, last modified: Mon May 4 08:01:30 2015, from Unix)
This is the Linux 3.19 initramfs image. I wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing while I had an easily accessed internet to help me if I got stuck.
[edit] I can, as an alternative, cp the image to /tmp/iniramfs.gz, gunzip it, and look inside to see what version it is. I'll try this later today, although I assume this would fall under me doing stupid things as well, but it's the best I can come up with. I know I'm pretty n00b, but I really am trying.

... I said to identify the kernel, not the initramfs.
Online
Yes, I'm sorry. I see now. vmlinuz-linux. When I get home this afternoon I try again. Thank you for not giving up on me.
[edit] Okay, so I ran the update again and cd'ed into /boot

Now to reboot and see if it works.

As I said in post #8, everything assumes you're using the "Arch Linux" entry in the Grub menu. Is that correct.
Online
Yes, the other Arch entry is "Arch (on /dev/sdd5)" which is the fall back. I only have those two entries in my grub menu. I also checked the actual grub menu itself to make sure that the grub entry I'm using is the same one as I think.
When I press "e" at the menu, the UUID for the root does not match the one used in the current grub.cfg entry. It does match the old one, which is odd. Currently there is no boot information left on the partition old-aroot. I wiped that. If it was looking there I would expected that it wouldn't boot at all.
[edit] OKAY! Fixed! I ran grub-install. Now the menu matches grub.cfg and everything and happy. Thank you Scimmia.

I have the same problem as OP, though in my case I have a raid, where I can't just change the labels.
