Error connecting: Could not connect: No such file or directory

Hello, recently I killed my arch Linux on accident, somehow. On startup it tells me its un successful mounting /boot, but my issue is different right now.

Im trying to reinstall the linux kernel in the live installatuon media with 

 pacman -S linux

, but it's giving me this error:
(by the way, I mounted and chrooted into the drive im having the problem on.)

 Error connecting: Could not connect: No such file or directory
error: command failed to execute correctly

I'd love to post a full log but I have zero clue on how to obtain it, and God knows I wont type it all on my phone here. Any help is appreciated!

Edit: tried yay aur, same problem

Tell us how you chrooted into.

Re: Error connecting: Could not connect: No such file or directory

Also, do you have an internet connection *before* you chroot?

Context matters too.  Perhaps you received some / all of those messages at some point in the process, but most of those are messages that would definitely not be generated by pacman.

mount /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt

Is there a problem with this?

Most likely. I am running on ethernet. I also tried the speed test package in chroot, as I have it installed and it shows I have internet.

If you "have internet" then you can post full logs without having to type them out.  Please do so.

Nope.

But what if you DON'T chroot into and rather directly use ArchISO's Pacman?

###test connection:###
ping 185.222.222.222

###mount your ROOT partition into /mnt###

###mount your HOME partition into /mnt/home###

# pacstrap -DK /mnt base linux linux-firmware

\\\

###IF successful, then go with:###

# arch-chroot /mnt

(chroot)# pacman -Syu

Yes. You mentioned that it's erroring out mounting /boot, so why aren't you mounting that here? Do you also have a separate /var partition? That could explain the error. Mount ALL of the partitions that are part of your system.

the ping succeeded. the command you suggested didn't though. pacstrap doesn't recognise the -D parameter

So the error isn't from pacman, it's from package-kit. Ignore it
