[SOLVED] Failed to connect to system bus: No such file or directory

Hi,

i am not able to boot arch. I full updated the system  and had problem with pacman.conf. The solution was to replace my current pacman.conf with pacman.conf.pacnew.
WIth that i could do the full update. After reboot, i was not able to boot arch.

jounalctl:

archlinux systemd-logind[456]: Failed to connect to system bus: No such file or directory
archlinux systemd-logind[456]: Failed to fully start up daemon: No such file or directory

Complite jounalctl https://pastebin.com/Yc66essB

Boot into ArchLinux's USB then mount-and-chroot into your actual ArchLinux installation and:

## WITHIN CHROOT##
# pacman -Qs dbus
# cat /etc/pacman.conf*

(you could also try fixing your installation by yourself by trying # pacman --root /mnt --cache /mnt/var/cache/pacman/pkg -Syu dbus-broker-units from OUTSIDE the chroot)
