[SOLVED] Failed to Load Kernel Modules

Hi.
While booting with systemd-boot I get:

Starting version 245.6-8-arch
/dev/nvme0n1p5: clean, 407600/3350528 fo;es. 3919328/13392640 blocks
[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
[FAILED] Failed to mount /efi
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
[FAILED]  Failed to mount /data

What I did:
- commented /efi in /etc/fstab (see screenshot)
- in esp/loader/loader.conf changed auto-entries to 0 and auto-firmware to 0 and editor to no
- run bootctl update

outputs from lsblk -f, cat /etc/fstab, fdisk -l

When installing Arch 3 days ago I first used /efi folder to create boot entries for systemd-boot, but then changed it to /boot folder (because arch wasn't discover by systemd).

Also I updated kernel from 5.7.8-arch1-1 to 5.7.9-arch1-1.

moderator edit -- replaced oversized image with link.

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to Load Kernel Modules

Please edit your post and replace the oversized image w/ a link (and thumbnail if you want)

The most likely explanation is that the boot partition wasn't mounted during the update and your running the 5.7.8 kernel against the 5.7.9 installation.
Check "uname -a".

The failsafe initramfs will likely still work "enough" to fix that.

Re: [SOLVED] Failed to Load Kernel Modules

Sorry for the image.
You were right with this kernel. I needed to use installation media to arch-chroot, downgraded linux package and now everything works fine.
THX!
