Description:

The latest archlinux-2015.05.01-dual.iso can boot one of my OLD laptop without PAE(32bit) successfully over PXE,
while it won't for another non-PAE laptop. The system can boot by the kernel, while it failed to a terminal, the log message says:

:: Copying squashfs image to RAM...cp: cannot stat '/run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/i586/airootfs.sfs': No such file or directory ERROR: while copy '/run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/i586/airootfs.sfs' to '/run/archiso/copytoram/airootfs.sfs'
sh: can't access tty: job control turned off


The folder /run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/i686 exists while /run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/i586 is not.
