Cannot Telnet or ssh

No, do depmod -a after all updates and modules restored.
You could get the modules out of the extracted rootfs, put in right place before doing depmod -a
You don't need to start from the begining

[dinjo]

And was the errors shown in upgrade good enough ?

[pepedog]

Yes, only a pacman -Syu to do now to upgrade glibc, then depmod -a once modules in right place

Not sure what you meant copy from /lib the modules are already there in /usr/lib/modules.

After copying from /usr/lib

[WarheadsSE]

1) ignore the modules.builtin is missing error
2) I moved the location in the updater tarball
3) since /lib/modules is empty, just remove the dir.

[dinjo]

I did all those but it does not starts after a reboot

1.Get the new tarball
2.Remove /lib/modules
3. Pacman -Syu -ignore glib
4. Pacman -Syu
5. Depmod -a
6.reboot

Cannot connect after six step

[dinjo]

What should I do next ?

uname -a

Shows Kernel 2.6 after the update script

Currently using new tarball

[dinjo]

Okay I didn't upgraded and instead created link to usr/lib to lib and installed samba transmission everything seems working fine but can't get static ip the details are there in rc.conf but it does not work also transmission is not starting on boot samba is

[pepedog]

So pacman -Syu doesn't want to upgrade anything more?

Now network and transmission are going off topic, but-

Network, install netcfg (somehow) probably by going here http://us.mirror.archlinuxarm.org/arm/
Copy /etc/network.d/examples/ethernet-static to /etc/network.d/
Edit /etc/network.d/ethernet-static
Edit /etc/conf.d/netcfg and put ethernet-static where you see last in brackets
net-profiles replaces network in DAEMONS line

Transmission, you have to get this file and put in /etc/rc.d
https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/plain/trunk/transmissiond?h=packages/transmission

[dinjo]

I dont want to do a pacman -Syu

For transmission the culprit was /dev/random /dev/mem it was shooting the cpu resource after i have done that its ok now do i have to do it everytime ?

I'll try the static ip not sure why they changed things drastically

Thanks for your help
