modules.devname not found after updating process was cancelled
I can't boot into my Arch system after updating was canceled in the middle of it.
When I'm trying to boot it shows this message
Warning: /lib/modules/4.19.25-1-lts/modules.devname not found - ignoring starting version 239
mount: /new_root: unknown filesystem type 'ext4'.
You are now being dropped into an emergency shell.
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[rootfs ]# _
When this message is shown I can't really type anything so I used live-usb.
My system has 3 partitions:
boot(~500mb);
swap(~16Gb) ;- another one that contains all the data and is the biggest one, I'll call this partition
home.
In live-usb I've mounted:
hometo/mnt
bootto/mnt/boot
Then I did these steps:
arch-chroot /mnt
sudo pacman -S linux-lts(I used lts before)mkinitcpio -p linux-ltsexitreboot
It didn't help.
One thing I noticed, after I arch-chroot'ed into the /mnt and typed uname -r, it showed me an older version that starts with 4.18. After I've performed steps 1, 2 and 3, I used uname -r again, and it still showed me the same old version 4.18..
What could be the source of this problem and how do I fix it?
UPDATE:
It happened to be that I was using custom initramfs and it wasn't updated. So I changed names of used initramfs back to initramfs-linux-lts.img (or something like that) in my grub.cfg file and system started to boot.

I've solved it.
It happened to be that I was using custom initramfs and it wasn't updated. So I changed names of used initramfs back to initramfs-linux-lts.img (or something like that) in my grub.cfg file and system started to boot.
