Thanks everyone for your efforts in testing and experimenting with the grub stuff.
I went over all mails and tickets, and afaict we only have 4 more open remaining issues, for all of which we only need someone with access to apply the fixes / some testing.
See the roadmap @ http://bugs.archlinux.org/roadmap/proj6
FS#13070: we have a fix but need a developer who can update archlinux-installer (and it's package) for us I applied the patch; see the bug report for more comments. Aaron- any reason we need to make tarballs and all that jazz for this, and can't just grab a GIT tagged revision directly and check it out? Seems like a painful and slow process.
FS#13068: we have to wait until grub-gfx package is updated for 64bit FS#13049: should be okay for 64bit users. if you have such system, keep your eyes open during cdrom boot and confirm it's okay now please. Closed- we already had a confirmed fix.
FS#12896: need confirmation from usb users that it's okay.
I personally have a slow upload.. maybe some else can upload his homebuilt isos (or we can wait a bit for Aaron to surface again, but that will be more then 24 hours from now I think)
Anyway, here is the build procedure, it's quite easy:
git clone http://projects.archlinux.org/git/archiso.git
cd archiso/archiso sudo make install #to be packaged later
cd ../configs/install-iso # change version in Makefile # if on x86_64, remove intel-536ep and intel-537 from packages.list
./buildall.sh scp release/* ...somewhere...
