I'm attempting to create my own Arch Live CD and I can't get the archiso hook to complete successfully.
In March 2010, Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi removed the archiso_early hook from archiso.git, which used to mount /dev/archiso (I'm not entirely sure what this pointed to, but it's clearly required). In the commit message he said it was removed because we could rely on /dev/disk/by-label to get the device (created by udev).
However I have built a custom live CD using mkarchiso and there is no /dev/disk available to me, so this boot process fails.
I was just wondering if anyone knew why this is missing, and what I can do to get this booting?
My mkinitcpio.conf file looks like this:
*HOOKS="base udev memdisk archiso archiso_pxe_nbd archiso_loop_mnt pata scsi sata usb fw pcmcia filesystems usbinput"*
Is it this bug? https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17231 If you get the ramfs$ prompt you can as a workaround run `udevadm trigger` wait a few seconds and then enter `exit`. Heiko
