I already did it and I couldn't find a problem. I also rebuilt kernel26.img several times with different settings in mkinitcpio.conf but this didn't help. I, btw., didn't change any settings when updating the kernel. Only updating the system to [testing] and rebuilding kernel26.img with the new mkinitcpio version from [testing] fixed the issue. So something has definitely been broken. Greetings, Heiko
