I am not sure what topic to post this I think it might have something to do with a recent upgrade. Everynight I execute pacman -Syy and then pacman -Syu and if everything looks okay then accept the package upgrades. My problem is that today when I come home from work xscreensaver is unresponsive, the whole system is frozen. I tried to ssh in and it would not accept the connection. So I restart the computer.
/dev/sda where the OS is installed complains about the file system not being okay after a unclean reboot. I go through a process of fsck-ing the file system and it returns that everything has been fixed. I restart my computer and it still complains, so I just restart and then everything seems to be working.
I login to my system notice that the command "mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1" returns with the following error:
"mdadm: unexpected failure opening /dev/md0"
Then I try to start my network with a "dhcpcd eth0" and I get a "dchcpcd: eth0: interface not found or invalid"
When I restart the computer with the ArchLinux Install CD I can start my raid and network just fine. I have tried to use the ArchLinux Fallback option on boot but it does not help. What could be the problem?

Perhaps /etc/mdadm.conf will give some info.
Perhaps the eth0 problem is loss of internet connection ...check /etc/rc.conf.....
Try another..... pacman -Syy.....

I got the problem resolved. I booted up with the arch cd and mounted my root and boot partitions. Then chroot into it. After chrooting I executed pacman -S kernel26 and then rebooted. Now everything works.
