Installed core, upgraded and now I can't boot

Hi, I reinstalled the Archlinux core version on my laptop, and I worked fine.
After rebooting the lap, I could boot, and upgraded everything (pacman -Syuf --noconfim). While updating a saw an error that /sbin/blkid was missing. Then I rebooted the lap and it doesn't work, I says that the disk (by UUID) is not found.

I tryed reinstalling, and after upgrading the same happens.
I also tryed changin the UUID for /dev/sda3 and still not working.

Any idea? Shall I install /sbin/blkid before upgrading everything? But how can I do it? I can't find it's package.

Thank you

now you know why is not encouraged to use -f along with -Su.. you should fix your conflicts by reading old news and how is the right way to do it.
