How to upgrade/downgrade an existing Arch from external media?

Hi there!
After last upgrade of kernel and video drivers i got a blank screen with no tty console.
I read couple of threads in » Pacman & Package Upgrade Issues
I found out that the solution would be "to boot from external media, chroot and downgrade kernel to 3.9.9"
Questions:
1.How would i do that?
2.Should i downgrade or upgrade (if with  the new kernel the issue is fixed)?
Thank you!

If the new kernel is fixed, that's the best answer by far. If it's not, downgrade until it is.

    What specifically is your performance issue? I haven't really seen any difference between iOS 7 and iOS 8.
    Here are some general performance suggestions from the Internet:

    Connect your iPhone to the computer via the USB cable. Open iTunes, click on your iPhone's name under Devices. Normally it will search for updates and prompt you automatically. If it's not working, click on Check for Update.

    Possibly. Media Go supports a variety of music formats, some of which can be imported in to iTunes and then synced on to an iPhone, however some of its formats cannot be imported in to iTunes.
    See http://mediago.sony.com/enu/supported-file-formats/ for a list of formats supported by Media Go. iTunes for Windows supports MP3, AAC, WAV, and can import and convert WMA files as well. However iTunes does not support ATRAC, or FLAC.
    Furthermore, if some of your music has been bought from an Internet music store it might be procted by DRM. If so it cannot be imported in to iTunes.
    To do the importing you would either drag the music files in to iTunes, or tell iTunes to open them. See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1347

  • How to upgrade firmware on Curve 8520 from v4.6 - v5 (don't have active Blackberry service account)

    Hello
    I have a Blackberry Curve 8520 runningt v4.6 formware. I see5.0 Bundle 1168 (v5.0.0.681 firmware is avaiable, platform 5.2.0.67), but I can't install it because I don't have an active service account. I get that error when I try upgrade it using USB cable and the Blackberry desktop software.
    Any ideas how to upgrade or create and register one of these active service accounts?
    I need to upgrade so that I can use USB MTP (which is not present in the current v4.6 firmware)
    Many thanks

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    From your post, I cannot quite tell the specific process you are attempting...so I will give you everything...
    The simplest way is to, on a PC (you cannot do this on MAC):
    1) Make sure you have a current and complete backup of your BB...you can find complete instructions via the link in my auto-sig below.
    2) Uninstall, from your PC, any BB OS packages
    3) Make sure you have the BB Desktop Software already installed
    http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop.html
    4) Download and install, to your PC, the BB OS package you desire:
    http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    It is sorted first by carrier -- so if all you want are the OS levels your carrier supports, your search will be quick. However, some carriers are much slower than others to release updates. To truly seek out the most up-to-date OS package for your BB, you must dig through and find all carriers that support your specific model BB, and then compare the OS levels that they support.
    5) Delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
    6) Disconnect your PC from the internet and turn off all radios on your BB (consider also removing the SIM...not likely necessary, but just in case)
    76a) For changing your installed BB OS level (upgrade or downgrade), you can launch the Desktop Software and connect your BB...the software should offer you the OS package you installed to your PC.
    7b) Or, for reloading your currently installed BB OS level as well as for changing it, bypass the Desktop Software and use LOADER.EXE directly, by proceeding to step 2 in this process:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
    Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC.
    If, during the processes of 7a or 7b, your BB presents a "507" error, simply unplug the USB cord from the BB and re-insert it...don't do anything else...this should allow the install to continue.
    Good luck and let us know!
