[Solved] Default boot entry is broken: Systemd with LTS kernel

I've had this issue before when not using the Arch Install scripts but now that I'm trying to install with only the LTS kernel (so I can finally do it myself) I have to figure out Systemd boot. My problem is that the computer will not add Arch Linux to the boot menu. Photo below:

Full output of bootctl status (after chrooting in) can be found at  https://ibb.co/XVxjXkP

The important part reads (Before anyone asks I figured I'd worry about adding Intel microcode once I can get it to boot, once I get it to boot that should be pretty easy)

Default Boot Loader Entry:
    title: Archlinux-lts
    id:arch-lts.conf
    source:    /boot/loader/entries/arch-lts.conf
    linux:    /vmlinuz-linux-lts (No such file or directory)
    initrd:    /initramfs-linux-lts.img (No such file or directory)
    options=root=PARTUUID=ebcb1e30-7039-e344-bc42-98d2de47eb30 rootfstype=ext4 add_efi_memmap rw

WARNING: Default boot entry is broken

What's causing it to be unable to find the kernel? Is there any other information I can provide?

Edit: Formatting issues relating to code insertion

Edit 2: Output of ls -lR /boot at Tucuxi's request

Edit 3: I was able to solve this by reinstalling the Linux-lts kernel as suggested at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=217104. I'll update if I have any further issues

Yes, initramfs-linux-lts.img and vmlinuz-linux-lts were missing in /boot.
