Failed to start record system boot/shutdown in UTMP.
Failed ti start Load/Save random seed.
No words... Can I repair It with a live iso?

First, remove the oversized image: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cod … s_and_code

Then, read your journal and determine what, exactly, is broken: it looks like it is your graphical target.

Re: Can I repair my system?

If you can't switch to a TTY, chroot from the live media.

Re: Can I repair my system?

You already know as you suggested it in your first post: boot into a live iso in the worst case.

However, first, just try changing to another tty (Ctrl-Alt-F2 or Ctrl-Alt-F3) as the system booted, your GUI simply didn't start.  What WM/DE do you run, and what DE do you use?

Re: Can I repair my system?

So you've no network either…
Boot the insntallation iso, arch-chroot into the system and post the info from there, but before:

uname -a
ls /lib/modules

Re: Can I repair my system?

At a guess there was not enough diskspace on /boot the kernel image and initrd were not updated so the modules no longer load meaning no GPU or networking.

If you wipe the current installation how will you find out where the space went or prevent a repeat on the fresh install?

Forget the chroot for now, just mount to root partition somewhere (like /mnt) and explore what's there and remove anything that shouldn't be there.  Once that is done the chroot will work again (and there's a fair chance that *everything* will work then if this is the root cause of the problems).
