I finally managed to finish the upgrade on Archiso by removing
/mnt/usr/lib64 after I checked #pacman - Qo for each file/symlink. They all
were not owned by any package.
Now booting to my system still give me a Kernel panic. Not syncing No init
found. Same when using fallback.
It sounds to me my initramfa is broken.

How shall I fix this issue?
