So, this is why it doesn't work. I used autoprepare mode. I find GPT partitionning for UEFI to be a little complicated.

It is possible to use a live cd (or live usbkey) and run PartedMagic to do partitioning before starting the arch install. That is pretty straightforward to do, using the graphical parted facility once the livecd is running. When selecting to write a partition table you just select the GPT option from the pull down menu that is presented. Then you can choose the new partitions and complete the partitioning before starting. My UEFI system was done this way and works well. -- mike c
