Posting this on Elinks from my Arch live disk (kernel upgrade hell)

Hey all,

I'm very grateful for Arch Linux. Thank you so much, developers! I'm just in kind of a pickle right now. After upgrading to Linux kernel 3.0, I probably broke a record with the amount of boot up errors, my eth0 is not recognized (even with ifconfig -a), my Xorg broke (I can fix that myself, the other stuff is more important) and worst of all.. Reisersf is no longer recognized, meaning my var and tmp directories cannot be mounted without chrooting in (since they use reisersf).

Here's a paste of my boot up log:
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/455111

I had to get creative to post that one since I can't figure out how to copy and paste in the terminal.. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Best,
Poopstuffs

Looking at your log, i'd say you're still booting the old kernel. (it searches the 2.6.36-ARCH modules, which of course aren't there anymore )

Did you read the news on the homepage about changing names for kernel and initrd?

Please post the output of

 ls -l /boot

and the contents of /boot/grub/menu.lst

You might also see this sticky thread

No help on Reiser FS though.

That's the weird part -- http://paste.pocoo.org/show/455273 and http://paste.pooco.org/show/455275

It even points to the right direction during the actual booting process. And reisersf definitely stopped working for me.

mount -t reisersf /dev/sda6 /tmp
mount: unknown filesystem type  'reisersf'

Should that be "reiserfs"?
