HoloISO/Archlinux Running pacman -Syu(u) results in the next boot becoming an endless black screen

I have been running both pacman -Syu and -Syuu with the following packages: > glibc make icu qt6-base linux-firmware pcaman-contrib > archlinux-contrib gcc-libs sh python wireplumber pipewire lha > base-devel fwupd linux-firmware-qlogic linux-firmware-bnx2x > linux-firmware-liquidio linux-firmware-mellanox linux-firmware-nfp The subsequent log gives no errors, only warnings. One is related to consolefonts in the mkinitcpio file. I've just been removing that element from the file and it doesn't seem to result in further problems. Another set of warnings relates to the AUR packages mentioned here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mkinitcpio#Possibly_missing_firmware_for_module_XXXX . I've been installing them after the first -Syu and then re-runnign -Syu afterwards to check if they need any packages. However, every time I install upd72020x-fw, it always comes empty. I have no idea why or what effect this has. The last set of warnings mention permissions being different on the system than the package apparently wants. I've tried pre-empting these by manually changing the permissions using chmod to the numbers stated, but that just makes other packages warn about differing permissions. I've tried running -Syu without the extra packages, which leads to the same result. I've been saying yes to all of the "replace (package) with extra_main/(package)5" requests. If I do need to say no to them every time, is there a way to do so without having to type n for each? The system works fine if I don't use -Syu, but that limits what I can do with it severely.
