Hi,
I found the linux-aarch64 package has been upgraded to version 6.7.5-1. So, I decided to give it a try, but during the installation I found my root partition ran out of space, as it only has 200 MB. So, I changed my mind and gave it a try to linux-rpi. I did the way Graysky recommended:
[code]
pacman -S --needed raspberrypi-bootloader linux-rpi
[/code]
After rebooting, I noticed my device wasn't booting because it couldn't find my root partition. Since I'm using an external USB drive, all I had to do is to edit the /boot/cmdline.txt file and replace the "root" attribute from "root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 " to "root=/dev/sda2", and that's all I needed to do to have it working nicely again! Another cool thing is that the new configuration only uses 30% of space I have in my boot partition.
Lastly, I noticed the speed the green led blinks changed. It used to blink at much slower pace with linux-aarch64 than it does now with linux-rpi. I don't know what that means, but it guess it should unimportant.
Thanks every one for your help!
