Well gummiboot looks OK, default mkinitcpio seems OK, (you did run mkinitcpio -p linux after reinstalling right).
Yup. I eventually poked around inside the shell that rEFInd was dropping me into. I found that I needed to specify root=/dev/sda8 in buildconfig (which seems to be a copy of mkinitcpio.conf), and that UUIDs will not work here. I also found that I could mount /dev/sda8 as /new_root. It would still drop me back out to a shell once more, but then begin to boot normally. Only, NetworkManager.service, dbus.service, and gdm.service (at least) failed. It then hung trying to initialize the pacman keyring. I'm treating it as a botched install. I'm going to try again after the end of semester rush. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJRbxQsAAoJELJhbl/uPb4SUJoP/0xvbhDaQ9IW5RLNVAWai0ev lryoSOoxqhUIfjYlNnmU/CyNRQjevjkdiULtdyYRycFesyQ8kkB2JTXd8OY9a2ML Rea8zx9sc03LCuesETnizusjk/OBOnB5j5yJ5MFAeNj9bxwdgHOgYJ11hbe5dCEq w4i/8TJLaimaFnKxBrxOctao5FWKql+NA0+HT+nZLp388ZTBLY0L42DgrL2fEFXg n8KQEGKX1h0uZLLeuGF7yomp/BMcMRS+Hxt41eku79uMsoYcunhvcxqQ76aPbfT9 K8lPVlq/H4grAS1ojcFle8NrX0K7ADE85SHasuZYU//iMgyao7gVB+zDUNwTEISe lN5n4GzTnBweTvn1NNqlMXjGdAr3JgkfK4T1H1vx7rtjEzemcspiKSeZKfgpeOJ0 PXRBlcQ/0uhPDjfuK7X3ZJ6qc6SGBuT5vbvK9w01mAs2ASW8tXRuPXmwDnUWO7pT QuGPVC16sI39OfOjK4yNsdr6uO9BU6PQY8Xfh8vCBYuLTU7VLljzOEiEZuP53Tkg 7qfMkzedwTowjKtJcTO8jaBfLvS3L/MwyWPecjOvZ467/dxnVoGm12fBUzex9W5o DsR2ZQt9fthhCzOLizNQJMacoaJ8EdJuuj1PhHZ7xc89IkL51qG4DNgetDno2qQS IthNEUXMdiVY57NQOQYI =qnYL -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
