I have a netbook HP Pavilion dm1-4101er. I can't start installation of Arch Linux (2012 edition, 2011 installs normally) which is recorded on my USB disk. When I press the Install button nothing happens, the menu is just redrawn. I can use only exit, memcheck and HDT buttons.
This task depends upon

I guess, you did not transfer iso correctly to the USB-disk, please follow oficial instructions [#1]

[#1] https://projects.archlinux.org/archiso.git/tree/docs/README.transfer#n64

Or maybe do you use dosfslabel, that corrupts filesystem... (for example "arch" directory renamed to "???????????")
