[ SOLVED ] Arch Linux Problem with installation

Hello everyone.
I spent 2 nights solving this problem, so now, I'm going to tell you what happened to me. I updated my system from stable to testing. But I did not pay any attention to:
1. new kernel naming (yes, everyone know that now)
2. My LVM partitions

Everything crashed up. I could not boot my system. Ok, reinstall. I used core image, booted x86_x64, but after any install (/dev/hands or auto partitioning) grub failed to boot. Even, if you don't use LVM. Solution (as for me), is to install everything only from CD, don't use net install, after you pass "Configure System" step, netinstall will not run mkinitcpio, so system will not boot. Maybe its only my problem. If you want to synchronize clock with ntp, select netinstall, sync it, then go back and select CD in sources.
After install I updated my system to newer version, everything is fine now.
Hope this thread will help some people.
