i would advise you to have only Arch and just "deal with it" (hours and hours was eaten to just make something "the arch way") ... but it's out of the subject did you find any solutions?

oh yes, it's not mounted at all, that's why you can't see it from ubuntu (arch& ubuntu? how could you? :P)
it's not a problem, just mount the boot partition to /<arch-mount>/boot and the /boot partition CAN'T be empty, because you can't login, but you actually boot!

another guy had problems with his VPS... when he updated he lost any connection with the VPS do you have /boot on a separate partition?
Indeed, and if it is on separate partition it's probably not getting mounted properly. May be issue with changes regarding using fstab/labels vs UUID.

As for Ubuntu and Arch on same machine, Ubutnu was a good way for me to learn. Once I felt comfortable, I switched to Arch, and NEVER LOOK BACK !! :-) But I am still a, let's say a n00b++, and this issue is puzzling me. Yes, /boot and /usr are not on the root /, and you are right, the boot CAN NOT be empty, it is just NOT mounted. It seems I can do everything from Ubuntu, but I am not so sure to know how. I will try to figure out, and LEARN, again and again...
I do not want to flame, but let me give you an advise too : BOTTOM POST in the ML, it is much more easy to follow :-) Yes, I have a solution, follwoing Corentin Delcourt and Kacper Zuk answer : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Chroot If that's the issue, you can mount your root partition in Ubuntu, chroot to it (read Change Root article on archwiki), edit /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and run mkinitcpio -p linux. Never did it before, but will manage to achieve to solve this issue. Learning, again and again.
