Arch image - boot problem

Postby brendonshaw » Tue Oct 16, 2012 7:13 pm

I have been using the new Arch boot image archlinux-hf-2012-09-18 and have create SD cards without any problems. I recently updated my system using Pacman -Syu and after a reboot it got stuck at the boot up screen. I thought I can screw up and created a new clean SD card with the same image and now I have the same problem.

After the boot up I get the following messages

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
Arch Linux 3.2.27-ARCH+ (tty1)

alarmpi login [OK] Started OpenNTP Daemon.
[OK] Reached target Multi-user
[OK] Reached target Graphical Interface
')

Nothing works, keyboard is lock, no IP address etc.

Do you know what I have done wrong or how to fix it?

How did you update the kernel? Doesn't look one of ours
Did you use the rpi-updater thang?

I used pacan -Syu, to update the system and have used the same image to create the SD card but still the same problem of locking up when I try to boot up.

That really doesn't look like an arch kernel
You have
Arch Linux 3.2.27-ARCH+ (tty1)
our kernels look like
Arch Linux 3.2.27-11-ARCH+ (tty1)
Debian, Raspbian, or using rpi-updater would do that

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('brendonshaw', 'I') used pacan -Syu, to update the system and have used the same image to create the SD card but still the same problem of locking up when I try to boot up.

Same problem here in a fresh install I will start again and post the version of the kernel I believe is creating problems.

Same problem Pi B, same image, SHA verified

cmdline.txt contents are:

sdhci-bcm2708.enable_llm=1 sdhci-bcm2708.sync_after_dma=0 smsc95xx.turbo_mode=N dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=ttyAMA0,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200 console=tty1 loglevel=2 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 init=/bin/systemd rootfstype=ext4 rootwait
