Does this actually need to be configurable?

For official images no, but can be usefull for custom live-mediums (same objection was for archisobasedir long time ago).

OK, for now I will implement fixed to "arch_". Maybe this parameter will be added in a future. Well, I agree you should add the option. I just wasn't sure whether adding so many configuration options is a good idea.

OK :)

I think that at some time, we need to unify boot options naming, (for example prefix all with archiso_, separate words with underscore...)

If there are no objections I will merge this.

"one or more files are wrong" maybe this is better: --> "one or more files are corrupted" Other then that, looks good on a quick glance. Dieter
