A few of my systems have failed to boot after upgrading the kernel to the latest 4.10 release.
This includes a Dell XPS laptop configured with LUKS, a Macbook Pro configured with LUKS and an Intel NUC with a vanilla configuration.
Nothing funky going on with all three installs, short of the required modules needed for /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and /etc/default/grub (for LUKS/LVM2 support).
I'm currently compiling a 4.9 kernel for these three systems to get them up and running again. I searched the forums and skimmed the front page but didn't see anything specific to this issue I'm having. Did I miss something super obvious?
Thanks in advance.

I was able to finally boot on my XPS after building/installing the linux-macbook kernel from the AUR that I am the maintainer of. The only thing I changed was /etc/default/grub and uncommented out the line GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true which seemed to work?

Got something like "/lib/modules/4.10.1-1-ARCH-modules.devname not found" and "ERROR: Unable to find root device"?

@naraesk don't specifically remember about the root device or modules, but I do recall it said something about not being able to find init.

Well, finding out exactly what the problem is is the first step to fixing it.

@WorMzy I agree, but unfortunately the Dell is my work laptop so I didn't have the luxury of time.
That being said, I've been using Arch since 2004 and started on Slackware back in 1996, but I appreciate this being moved to the newbie section when all I had done was run a
pacman -Syu
which rendered all three systems unbootable.

The move was an evalutation of the topic, not yourself. You might have 20 years experince using Linux, but this topic has little more than vague discriptions of config files and a list of hardware. You have evidently had time to compile and boot a different kernel, but you have not, as yet, provided us with the exact error message you recieved, a list of what was upgraded, the relevent config files (the bootloader, mkinitcpio configs you mentioned would be a good start). The topic I linked you to explains this.
