Arch won't install

[jreidsma]

Hi,
I have installed Arch many times now. And each time I do it the same way. And each time it has worked until now.

When I try to "configure the system" (the step during installation) it gives me this:

MKINITCPIO FAILED - SYSTEM MAY NOT BOOT
starting mkinitcpio . executing chroot /mnt /sbin/mkinitcpio -p linux >>/v chroot: failed to run command '/sbin/mkinicpio': no such fiel or directory

I have even tried only installing the core packages, and it still gives it to me. Even after rebooting and everything.

I continued this time though, and it booted fine.

Any ideas? Does it matter if that step worked in installation or is it fine?

Hay jreidsma, I hope you are well.

mkinitcpio is the config used to allocate Modules (programs) to RAM for easy access, in Arch-Linux Its not compulsory but it is handy, your system will run fine without it.

You can manualy try and download and install with :

$ git clone git://projects.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio.git

Just in case The files was corrupted or missing.

Thanks
Ben
