Description:
usually I use an usb key with files from the archlinux installation iso image, I use syslinux 6.02 on a bootable usb key and I create a syslinux.cfg file, with the "/dev/disk/by-uuid/" method in order to be able to boot archlinux iso on an usb key : UI menu.c32 DEFAULT arch32 LABEL arch32 MENU LABEL Boot Arch Linux (i686) MENU INDENT 1 LINUX /progs/archlinux/arch/boot/i686/vmlinuz INITRD /progs/archlinux/arch/boot/i686/archiso.img APPEND archisobasedir=/progs/archlinux/arch archisodevice=/dev/disk/by-uuid/4489-C09F https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/USB_Flash_Installation_Media#Using_manual_formatting since the 2014-05-01 version of the archlinux iso this method doesn't work, I get this error from archlinux : Mounting '/dev/disk/by-uuid/4489-C09F' to '/run/archiso/bootmnt' Waiting 30 secondes for device /dev/disk/by-uuid/4489-C09F ...

ERROR: Failed ton mount '/dev/disk/by-uuid/4489-C09F' Falling back to interactive prompt You can try to fix the problem manually, log out when you are finished sh: can't access tty; job control turned off [rootfs /]# it's not normal because with older versions of archlinux iso ( 2014-04-01 for example ) I can boot with my usb key without problems, something seems broken with the 2014-05-01 version about the "/dev/disk/by-uuid/" method Additional info: * package version(s) 2015-05-01 archlinux iso * config and/or log files etc. Steps to reproduce: - download the last archlinux iso ( 2015-05-01 ) - try to create a bootable usb key with syslinux 6.02 - create a syslinux.cfg with a "/dev/disk/by-uuid/" method in this file in order to be able to boot the archlinux boot files - you will see an error few seconds after booting from archlinux ( see the attached file ) |
