Details
It seems that mkinitcpio's filesystem autodetection doesn't
work when the program is not run from within an Arch system,
e.g. during a normal installation. When run from a booted
Arch Linux system, nothing goes wrong, but if you use the
initrd produced by mkinitcpio during the installation,
you'll get a kernel panic because the necessary filesystem
modules aren't there.

I will think about the best way to do that. Thanks
Did I make unneeded changes? *gasp*
Well, I think the new way of doing it is a tad more appropriate, as it uses sysfs to detect block devices.
I'll close.
