Recently, I updated with CachyOs Hello qt6 packages… After that CachyOS won’t boot. (Stuck at running hook plymouth). I tried to downgrade qt6-base, then tried to restore snapshot of Timeshift. Update messed me and I probably messed it (downgrade and restore). Long story short, I have to do mount /d…

if you still have access internet (not in current cachy) you can : boot to live cd connect to internet there (wifi / ethernet) open konsole run sudo cachy-chroot mount your root volume after you successfully chroot, go sudo pacman -Syu there after that, go reboot

same here! (btw, system is up and you can log into console, but UI is broken….) LG Flo

Same problem. It acts like it’s going to boot, runs all the way to the cachy os boot logo, and then sticks after “loading plymouth”.

solved with a : sudo pacman -Syu Always do complete upgrades :wink: best, Flo

If I had internet to do that. No audio no internet, how to do syu then?

do you use btrfs and snapper? if yes you can go restore the snapshot before updating the qt6

Similar problem here, after the qt6 updates (yes, even after a. -Syu complete upgrade). Just get a blinking cursor on boot. I was at able to switch terminals (CTRL + Alt + F3/etc) and restore snapshot. Might wait to see if there’re newer updates

Seems CachyOS pacman downgraded the QT Upgrade again. Came home from Work, started Cachy. Did an Update with the Cachy Update Tool. Then the Shutdown Button was not working, instead the complete UI hang up. Then used STRG ALT F3 to restart. That did not work. Screen stand black after loading the L…

Thanks floppi! Not sure how an update fixed the buggy qt6 package an hour after an update broke it…but I’ll take it. For those hung at the “loading plymouth” point: * Switch to a virtual terminal (CTRL+ALT+F2) * Login * Run sudo pacman -Syu

After update qt6, downgrade and timeshift. Emergency opens, gotta mount /dev/sda2 /boot, I’m not online (NO INTERNET - NO SYU)… No sudo syu can help me in this case. It seems faster to delete it all and install it again and watch forum for complications. Timeshift was never of any use ever for me…

Last update messed my boot
