pacman -Syu hangs after updating kernel but before mkinitcpio.
Jesus, take the wheel.
I just have a script that repeats the "install-kernel" command and the "bootctl install" one that I run after every big update. It should be fine without them, right? Too many times the kernel one fails in the pacman update chain and I've had to chroot from a live USB too many times to do the bootctl install to put the correct bootloaders in the efi partition to skip the manual bootclt install from my actual PC after updates.
Just in case. It takes 2 seconds vs searching the pendrive, loading, typing in an European keyboard when the live USB asumes it's american, searching the chroot command on my phone... All of this when I just want to relax. Weird stuff I know.
