Unresponsive after updating Manjaro

[JoSSte]

I received my Pinephone64 a couple of months ago, and updated without issues.

Today I tried to update the phone using the GUI and got an error regaring dependencies.

THen I SSH'ed into the device, and ran 

Code:

sudo pacman -Syu

and then restarted..

Now the phone shows nothing on the display at all when booting.

I have tried the recovery boot a couple of times, and the LED is always green and then yellow, not the red-yellow-green stated in the documentation.

Going through the logs, I noticed this error:

Code:

So I am worried that this may be a low level issue, so I have ordered a serial console cable to be able to debug any such error.

any advice is appreciated
