The new kernel 2.6.23.9 refuses to boot - spits out something about filesystems, says cd rom sata all (hooks) ndiswrapper, forcedeth blah blah, continously call traces happening but not booting. Not even in fallback mode.
I will try to boot thru live CD, but what should I alter? mkinitcpio.
This is on 64 bit only. My 686 desktop does not have this issue (atleast one of them). The other one I am using now. I don't want to upgrade this too and become incommunicado as the other desktop is in the office.
This is happening too often with Arch nowadays. It automatically upgraded the nvidia module and asked me to log out of X and remove the module manually. But I chose to reboot and this is what happened.

Actually it is screwing up at the loading modules stage
it says bug soft lockup cpu#0 stuck for 11s [rc.sysinit:1782]
modules linked in ndiswrapper forcedeth ext3 jbd mbcache sd_mod sr_mod cdrom ehci_hcd usbcore sata_nv ata_generic pata_amd libata
Pid : 1782 comm: rc.sysinit Tainted: P D: 2.6.23-ARCH#1
Then a lot of gibberish about RIP etc. This is continuously looping
