i had to do a couple of hard reboots recently, could that have been the cause?
Yes, I think your local pacman database was corrupted - some files were probably missing. For instance on ext4 filesystem, it can take 30 seconds (by default) until the data is written from cache to the disk. If you hard reboot during that time, the files can go missing.

And thanks for the help
Last edited by odf (2008-07-18 19:26:44)Not sure why typing 'gimp' is bringing up 'gimpshop', but anyhoo...
I just punched in 'http://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/archl … po/os/i686' into Epiphany and it 404's, so I'd assume it's down at the mo. Meantime, if you go into your mirrorlist and uncomment whichever 'Server = *' is closest to you (you could just do any of them, but the nearest ones will give you better performance) and comment out that bottom line.
All going to plan, that should sort it.

Install error: "error: 'abs': not found in sync db"
Hello Im trying to do an install and when i select the packages then go to install it says it cant download packages and this is the error showing up in vt5:
error: 'abs': not found in sync db
my net is working fine so im not sure whats up if anyone could help that would be great..
thanksunselect ABS from the package selection and try again.
Then install the abs package from the completed base install. -
[EDIT] A much simpler way to deal with this is to explicitly ignore the kernel update during a full system update:
pacman -Syu --ignore linux
Then explicitly update the kernel alone:
pacman -S linux
[EDIT] First, after a full system update I had to move the STUB kernel image from the UEFI directory back to /boot, them recreate the images a second time. The systemd service moved it back to the UEFI directory.
[EDIT] The use of 'mdadm_udev' in HOOKS= also seems to be no longer just 'preferred' to the 'mdadm' hook but instead is now mandatory.
I've read the news item...
Changes to LVM
2013-02-12 - Thomas Bächler
With lvm2 2.02.98-3, we now utilize lvmetad to activate LVM volumes automatically. This implies the following changes:
The lvm2 initramfs hook now requires the udev hook.
The use_lvmetad = 1 must be set in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. This is the default now - if you have a lvm.conf.pacnew file, you must merge this change.
You can restrict the volumes that are activated automatically by setting the auto_activation_volume_list in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. If in doubt, leave this option commented out.
If you need monitoring (needed for snapshots), run systemctl enable lvm-monitoring.service.
The lvmwait kernel command line option is no longer needed and has no effect.
If you run pacman -Syu and update device-mapper, linux and lvm2 at the same time, you will get an error message that /sbin/dmsetup is missing. Run mkinitcpio -p linux again after the update to avoid any problems.
...and I do get the message...
==> ERROR: file not found: `/sbin/dmsetup'
...but after a full system update with...
pacman -Syu
...when I execute...
mkinitcpio -p linux
...this is what I get...
Building image from preset: 'default'
/boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux.img
ERROR:specified kernel image does not exist: `/boot/vmlinuz-linux'
Building image from preset: 'fallback'
/boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img -S autodetect
ERROR:specified kernel image does not exist: `/boot/vmlinuz-linux'
So of course if I reboot I get the dreaded 'No volume groups found' message.
I should mention that I use the systemd path and service to move the kennel after it has been updated.

Just to confirm. You did all these steps, right?

KairiTech wrote:HOOKS="base udev autodetect sata mdadm usbinput keymap encrypt lvm2 filesystems timestamp shutdown"
Replace
mdadm
with
mdadm_udev
. Maybe this is nothing, but it is recommended to use this one instead of the other.
NEW EDIT: Expecially this one
The use_lvmetad = 1 must be set in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. This is the default now - if you have a lvm.conf.pacnew file, you must merge this change.

[SOLVED] error: target not found Skype
Hello everyone I am trying to install Skype on Arch Linux x64 and I am getting the message when I try to do a sudo pacman -S skype "error: target not found skype". I edited my pacman.conf file to allow multilib but I am still not able to install the package. I also ran a sudo pacman -Syu and pacman -Syyu with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please post your pacman.conf for review - that is after you check the most common error in this: did you uncomment the line "[multilib]"? The first version below is correct, the second is a very common mistake:
[multilib]

#[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Yup that ended up being the issue, I can't believe I didn't think to uncomment the "#" from multilib haha. Thanks again! -
[SOLVED] error: target not found: lib32-sdl
Pacman can't seem to find "lib32-sdl" but it's there... http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort … =&limit=50

This morning Pacman asked to be updated before I could run a system-wide update. Maybe that had something to do with it ?
Solution: I'm running Arch i686 and "lib32-*" is for the x86_64 version.

Never had an issue before. Wine or any other package installs fine.

I you're using 32-bit system, why do you want to install lib32-openal ? Install http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/i686/openal/ .

I said ... ok, I will probably install pidgin, and install some kind of skype plugin, but now ... I tried to install teamviewer from AUR, with this command
sudo yaourt teamviewer
I choosed the second package which is the original teamviewer package not some kind of plugin, but ... I got this:

I am pretty sure there is a solution for this ... because I don't want to sit all day, trying to install an application.
Waiting for your suggestions guys.
PS: I've also tried to install for example, for skype, the lib32-qt4 library, but it's already installed, don't know what's happening.

Hi
I tried to initial RAM disk with and got error message
[root@archiso /]# mkinitcpio -p linux
==> ERROR; Preset not found: '/etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset'
And I found some answers but one said
ALARM doesn't use an uInitrd.
and another said I have to be install kernel26.
How I can solve this?

This is confusing given this report. Could you confirm exactly the prompt you have when you try to run the configuration commands such as mkinitcpio -p linux.
Because, as Trilby says, if you really have successfully installed base and base-devel and chrooted into the system, you should not be seeing these errors. Also, I am pretty sure that you should not have needed to verify the master key manually. When Arch first introduced signing, manual verification of keys was required but I am almost certain that is no longer the case. So something is almost certainly wrong at an earlier stage and you need to fix that, as Trilby says, before moving onto the next stage.
EDIT: "As Trilby says" should now read "as Trilby says again" - I'm too slow.

Networkless install gives "not found in sync db" error
I'm trying to install on a laptop which whose network drivers are not in the install kernel and which doesn't have a cd. All files have to be transferred by usb till I can get it up and running and install the drivers.
I got the machine to boot from the network (pxeboot) and got into the install shell without any problems. On another machine I downloaded the current core iso, mounted it and copied all the packages to a usb disk which I then mounted as /src/arch/pkg on the laptop.
When doing step 2 of the install I got an error that it couldn't find /src/arch/pkg/setup so I created that directory, the errors went away but I then didn't get any packages in the package list. I tried mounting the package disk as /src/arch/pkg/setup and then tried again. This time I got a list of packages. I selected them all and went to step 3.
At this point it tries to access the network to refresh the package database, fails and gives me the error:
error: 'acl-2.2.47': not found in sync db
Looking in VT5 I get
error: failed to retrieve file 'current.db.tar.gz' from : No such file or directory
error: filed to synchronize current: no such file or directory
error: filed to synchronize any databases
Have I done something wrong? Having to create the setup directory feels wrong, I thought I just put the packages in /src/arch/pkg so I'm guessing that that may have something to do with it.
If not, how can I get round this? Can I create a database and drop it on the machine?unselect ABS from the package selection and try again.
Then install the abs package from the completed base install. -

[SOLVED] yaourt bug (error: target not found: [b]I )
subj, after install and uninstall xampp
yaourt -S xampp
==> Installing from a package list
Пароль:
error: target not found: {b}I
*in quote changed [] to []
maybe clear package list?
I tried:

rm /tmp/yaourt-tmp-$USER
reinstall yaourt
but fail
other soft installing normally
yaourt -Syy is the solution

[SOLVED] GRUB 2 - "error: file not found" after Clonezilla Restore
Hello,
I backed up my Arch Install which is one root partition covering the entire SDD with Clonezilla, to play around with Gentoo and FreeBSD on my Laptop.
Now I restored the image and when GRUB 2 loads I see "error: file not found" three times for a short momemt before I'm in the GRUB 2 menu.
When I boot my I also see these 3 messages (probably the once from the early loading process) and "Loading Linux ck kernel...." "Loading initrafms...." "Press any key to continue..." When I wait for a short time or press enter it boots like expected (fsck message appears for a short time since I'm using quite boot and I'm in KDM after that).
Grub loading...
error: file not found
error: file not found
error: file not found
Loading Linux ck kernel...
Loading initramfs...
Press any key to continue...
I did not have this when I backed it up. It booted into the menu and when I booted the menu entry it would go black to show me the fsck message and seconds later I was in KDM.
I tried $ sudo grub-mkconfig but it did not change anything.
This is my current /boot/grub/grub.cfg

# It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates
# from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub

Anyone has a clue what files it is looking for? And why it doesn't boot straight away, when there is nothing that keeps it from booting up normal anyway?
