Re: Failed to load kernel module ( with last kernel update) [SOLVED]

Boot your system with the installation ISO and post

journalctl -b -1

from within the chroot of your installation.

Re: Failed to load kernel module ( with last kernel update) [SOLVED]

Redirect the output to a file and post that file on a pastebin site.

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Li … in_clients


Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: Failed to load kernel module ( with last kernel update) [SOLVED]

From the chroot you will see the kernel from the iso if you check with uname or so, you should regardless be able to post the full journal of the actual system, please do so.

If this is an EFI install you will likely have to mount your ESP as well (and if you've done so use /boot for that)

Which instructions did you follow to install Arch Linux?

Re: Failed to load kernel module ( with last kernel update) [SOLVED]

Your kernel is outdated, mount your /mnt and /mnt/boot chroot in and run

pacman -Syu linux

to not have to repeat this in the future, make sure your /boot partition is mounted in your /etc/fstab

Sep 09 15:49:12 archlinux systemd-modules-load[494]: Failed to lookup module alias 'crypto_user': Function not implemented

This file should be part of the linux package.
Try upgrading your while system from within the chroot environment.
Make sure, that all relevant partitions (/boot, /usr, etc.) are mounted correctly when you do so.
Also post the output of

cat /etc/modules-load.d/*
cat /etc/modprobe.d/*

Re: Failed to load kernel module ( with last kernel update) [SOLVED]

If you are on an UEFI and you have your ESP mounted to /boot (and your boot loader configured to read kernel images from the ESP) you must ensure that the ESP is still mounted to /boot when you run an upgrade including the kernel. The post-install scripts running mkinitcpio will generate a bootable image for the just installed new kernel into /boot. If you don't have your ESP mounted at that point in time, it will instead write into the directory /boot on your root partition and not to the actual ESP partition. Which will lead to boot loaders finding and loading the old kernel image rather than the new one you just installed. You will in fact now have "zombie" kernel image in the /boot  directory which you might want to remove (make sure you do not have the ESP mounted while removing the /boot directory) and as already mentioned, you will want to add /boot resp. the ESP to your fstab so you don't run into this again.

If this is [SOLVED] please mark the topic as such by editing your initial post's subject line https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … ow_to_post
