tried to use fbsplash and now I am unable to boot

Hello,

it looks like I have done something wrong.

I've followed the wiki's "suspend to disk" description and after fixing some minor problems it was working fine.
Then I gave fbsplash a try and that is where something went wrong.

After fbsplash has replaced the initscripts my system refuses to boot.
When it tries to boot arch it tells me something about "static dev" and then tries to load modules and this is where it stops and give me the "crtl+d or root password" prompt.

I have uninstalled fbsplash and installed the default initscript again but the problem remains,
it still reports something about "static udev" and hangs on "loading modules".

How can I get my system to load arch again ?

Best regards,
Ingo

Try to boot from CD, chroot to your Arch and reinstall both udev and kernel.

Loggin in with root password, remounting my partition with write access and reinstalling udev did the trick.
Thank you.
