[Solved]I cannot boot my arch linux "Failed to start Login Service"

Hello

I just about to boot my computer and stop while booting with this message

[FAILED]Failed to atart Login Service.
See 'systemctl status systemd-logind.service' for details.

I want to see that, but I cant cause my arch linux already stop booting - can type nothing!!

I remember that my last command line at terminal was

sudo pacman -S gcc-libs

While installing that package, I canceled installing by ctrl+c and type reboot command
And I faced this problem

I just wondering that is there sth i can do except deleting all data and reinstall all system
i met this kind of problem a week ago, and i deleted all data and reinstall, and i faced it again.

Should I reinstalll??

No, boot an install disk, mount your partitions, and use pacman's "--root" option to reinstall gcc-libs and update the entire system. Then stop doing dumb things. Canceling in the middle of installing gcc-libs? What did you expect to happen?
