Is there an Archlinux live environment available anywhere so I can take a look round without installing AL to my hard drive..?
I created a grub menu entry for ‘archlinux-2011.08.19-core-dual.iso’ and booted successfully.. but afaict.. it only lets me run the installer.
I must be missing something..

You're not missing a thing, archlinux doesn't have that kind of liveCDs, just the installer. At least officially. Can't remember right now any live-cd aside from archbang ( but that is the livecd of an arch based distro, not just arch IIRC) PS: If you're looking into installing arch, don't use a core installation, or at least grab the lattest. It is better to use a netinstall.
